What We Can Offer You:

• A culture of learning and development, where you'll be supported through continuous professional growth.
• Empowerment to bring new ideas to life in an environment that values and encourages creative thinking.
• While researched leads will be provided, you'll confidently immerse yourself into an industry to discover potential exhibitors and those fresh angles.

• A desire to help foster a positive, collaborative culture where we support one another to achieve great things.
• Commitment to pushing boundaries and striving for excellence in everything you do.

A Few Key Points:

• Diversity & Inclusion: We celebrate diverse backgrounds and perspectives; they make us stronger. If you’re excited about this role, apply even if your experience doesn’t align perfectly. If not this one, you could be just the right fit for other roles we are recruiting for.
• UK Right to Work: All applicants must have the right to live and work in the UK. We cannot offer sponsorship at this time.
• Our communities: We have eight communities including MA Agriculture, MA Business, MA Dentistry Media, MA Education & Music, MA Exhibitions, MA Financial Media, MA Healthcare and MA Travel Retail
