AEO PROMOTES JESS WRIGHT TO EVENT MANAGER

The Association of Event Organisers (AEO) is delighted to announce the promotion of Jess Wright from senior events executive to event manager.

Wright’s promotion recognises her exceptional organisational skills, commitment to customer service, and dedication to making AEO events inclusive and welcoming for all. As AEO continues to grow its event portfolio through its working groups, Wright is playing a key role in transforming group outputs into valuable, engaging events that reflect member needs.

In her new role, she will take greater ownership of event planning and delivery – managing suppliers, supporting partners and sponsors, and focusing on enhancing the delegate experience. Her care and attention to partner deliverables, sponsor needs, and attendee experience ensure that every detail of AEO’s events is handled with professionalism and heart.

Sarah Scott, director of events and operations and Wright’s line report, said:
“Jess is an absolute asset to our team. She manages multiple projects and stakeholders with ease, always keeping calm under pressure and delivering to a high standard. She’s incredibly organised, cares deeply about every element of our events, and always has our members’ experience front of mind. This promotion is very well deserved, and I’m excited to see her continue to thrive as event manager.”

Wright’s promotion reflects AEO’s ongoing commitment to recognising and nurturing talent within its team, as the organisation continues to evolve its events in line with member and working group outputs.
