This week Karen and Jack are joined by Naomi Hollas. Naomi is a 2019 International Event Management Graduate from Glasgow Caledonian University, and the Founder of Event Grads, the community for event management students and graduates.
Over the past 7 years, Naomi worked her way up the Scottish festival sector from the Hebridean Celtic Festival to TRNSMT. She recently left her full-time role to pursue her freelance career and support projects such as BVEP’s Event Apprenticeship scheme.
In 2021, Naomi was featured on the BBC, named one of The Meeting’s Show Tomorrow Talent winners and was shortlisted for the EVCOM Realise Award. She sits on the EventWell Junior Board and is a member of HIT Scotland’s Futures Group.
Hear how this all happened, what she values most about her experience and the contacts she’s made and how events have shaped the event professional she is currently and the one she aims to be moving forward.
