Alicia

Account Manager

We’re delighted to introduce the latest addition to the Connected Event Group team, our new Account Manager Alicia. Alicia brings a wealth of experience in fostering and nurturing long-term client relationships, both within the events industry and other sectors. We look forward to supporting Alicia in applying these valuable skills to her role with us. ‍

While working in customer service and hospitality, Alicia discovered her passion for working with clients and developing strong connections. In her previous position with Redback Connect, Alicia fell in love with event delivery and her affinity for the events industry emerged. Intrigued by CEG's innovative work and recognising our shared values, Alicia reached out to explore opportunities with our team.

Alicia loves the fast-paced and dynamic environment of events and enjoys every aspect of event management. However, as a people person, what truly ignites her passion is the opportunity to build robust and long-lasting connections with her clients. Alicia's dedication to building customer connections and her commitment to ensuring the success of her clients' events is evident based on her past successes, and we’re fortunate to have her expertise on our team.

When asked what she has enjoyed about working at Connected Event Group so far, Alicia stated that she is loving the team spirit that resonates throughout CEG; “Everyone’s kind, welcoming, focused and very helpful, and really importantly, treated equally regardless of their role. What really won me over is the level of organisation that went into their extremely smooth induction process and support from Renae during this time. It reassured me that I have definitely chosen the right place to work”.

For those aspiring to join the events industry, Alicia offers some valuable advice: she emphasises the importance of reaching out directly to business owners and following companies on social media, because doing so can lead to unexpected opportunities, and helps you to stay informed about industry trends and advancements.
