Kit and Caboodle is a creative events agency based in London and I was working in a hybrid role with them. 

As part of my role, I created event concepts based on the brief received, then co-create a pitch deck including the event concepts and budget required to activate them. Pitching in person to the client to try and win the contract. Once contract was won, client servicing to ensure the client is happy and that the brief is being delivered to the client’s needs and expectations in the time frames needed. Overall end to end event management from inception to bringing their event vision to life.
