Overview: Our client was the Infection Prevention Society who hold a three-day scientific conference every year throughout the UK. The conference features a multi-stream programme, large poster display, concurrent study days and social events to include black tie gala dinner and awards ceremony. The conference hosts the UK’s largest infection prevention and control exhibition with over 70 companies present.

Sales Campaign Executive

Sammy has recently joined Fitwise as a Sales Campaign Executive bringing over six years of sales experience with her. Being organised and having meticulous attention to detail are some of the strengths she brings to the team, along with the ability to juggle a mix of projects at the same time.

What do you enjoy doing outside of work?

Outside of work, Sammy is a wife, mum, and dog mum. She enjoys spending her days off with family, enjoying brunch with the girls or travelling the UK attending various music gigs and festivals. After a long day or a busy weekend, her favourite way to unwind is cuddling up on the sofa with her beloved Dudley – a wonderfully crusty old Border Collie.

 

Favourite place in the world?

Sammy aims to take at least one holiday in the sun, and one city break each year. Her favourite holiday so far has been a family trip to Tenerife where she visited Siam Park, went scuba diving with a ‘shark’ (a 10-inch bath toy) and befriended a capuchin monkey – the perfect highlight for someone who is totally animal obsessed.

 
Sammy is looking forward to gaining more skill and knowledge in the events industry and working alongside a great team!
