Thomas Snell

I am a recent marketing graduate from the University of Sydney. Currently I am employed as a casual office assistant at Lendlease and run a small events company. In my role at Lendlease I have to be highly organised and pay close attention to detail. At my events company I enjoy coming up with innovative events concepts, taking them to market and working to make the events special and memorable. The marketing of these events involves using multiple social platforms including Facebook, Instagram and Tiktok, employing influencers around the universities and creating professional video content. Through these strategies we have grown a large following from our target audience of university students which has led to us putting on four highly successful events. The learnings and experiences of setting up the small event business has been invaluable and makes me excited to continue a career in the event management industry.
