Now leading a crew of 50 staff, Rowe advised “we have a close-knit team that really work together to deliver some of WA's most prestigious events. Everyone has been supportive of my move into the Partner role, and I look forward to continuing to do what we do best: deliver exceptional events.”

Hamblin, previously a Technical Event Manager in Sales has been promoted to Associate and under Rowe’s direction will be working closely with the Operations and Technical Event Management team.
