• Event Staff

  • Oct 2019 - Oct 2020

  I’ve experienced in depth training which included health and safety information such as food safety. As well as waitressing techniques such as setting up dinner tables, serving guests in a formal setting and communicating with professional clients. In this role I have had the opportunity of assisting coordination at several events! I delivered a formal dinner for Oxford University as well as helping to coordinate a wedding reception in Oxford. These events involved decorating also liaising closely between staff members, clients and guests. My favourite event I have been involved with At Your Service was the Pretty Little Thing x Little Mix clothing line launch. Working for such high profile clients meant extreme attention to detail was required when decorating, making sure everything was safe and ready, from the stage to the ruby chocolate fountain! Once decorating had been done, myself and my team had to assist with the coordination of the artists and their schedules, serving guests and ensuring the event ran smoothly by maintaining a clean and spacious environment.

• Event Assistant

  • Dec 2018 - Dec 2018

  I was thoroughly involved in volunteering as an Event Assistant for two weeks. For the first few days of my experience I did office work involving; making an Excel spreadsheet of necessary items for the events, discussing event briefs with the team and organising decorations for the event. The practical side I loved meant I would go to venues with the team, decorate, greet guests and be available for anything I was required to do e.g. occasionally checking guests in at the door. We would also sometimes have an event summary, evaluating the day. Show less

  My roles allowed me to develop skills such as; teamwork, multitasking working to deadlines. I also developed soft skills including customer services and being able to handle enquiries. This position encouraged me to be adaptable as well, as not only did I work in my own department (mens), I occasionally had to support other departments or the cafe when understaffed.
