• Favourite event: Its not an event, its a moment... just before the doors open, when the entire team are in the zone and someone whatsapps 'we got this...'; I love the anticipation in that moment.

​

• Nando's Order: Mushroom and halloumi wrap.

​

• Years in the industry: Decades ... but it's a lie that my first job in the industry was sealing the parchment invitations with wax and delivering them on horseback.

• Favourite event: Our clients industry dinner for over 1000 people at Grosvenor House - we always have a great after dinner speaker (my personal favourite was Katherine Ryan), and it's a great feeling looking over the balcony and seeing all our hard work come to life! 

​

• Nando's order: I'm a veggie, so it would have to be Medium (unless I'm ill, then it's extra hot!), Great Imitator, Peri Chips and Macho Peas.

​

• Years in the industry: I studied Event Management at Uni, so nearly 10 years! 

• Favourite event: TCS Summer Reception - being able to host an event in some of London’s most iconic venues. It is amazing to see the production, the food and the entertainment all come together within 45 minutes of setting up! 

​

• Nando's order: A pre or post event day Nando’s has to involve a double carb; so a fino pitta with peri-salted chips and always an extra side of halloumi! 

​

• Years in the industry: 5 years.

• Favourite event: My favourite event so far has been the SMMT Summit this June! I really enjoy working with all the speakers on the day and getting them set for stage! It was also great to work with the event partners in the run-up and see their exhibitions come to life.

​

• Nando's Order: I’m a veggie, so I’ve been loving the new spiced chickpea burger! For sides I'd go for peri peri chips (with loads of peri salt) and buttery corn on the cob!

​

• Years in the industry: I studied Event Management in University for 4 years and joined Seventy for my Internship. I was lucky enough to join back with them as an Event Manager this year!

• Favourite event: I feel I haven't yet experienced enough to know my favourite, but I think my first one, SMMT Electrified, will always be in my top 3 as it was a completely new experience and one of my first days at Seventy Events.

​

• Nando's order: A double chicken wrap with lemon and herb (this gives me the opportunity to spice it up and add my own, depending on the mood I'm in) Then a side of creamy mash and a corn on the cob! 

​

• Years in the industry: Only just started - 4 months.

• Favourite event: My favourite event to work at would definitely be the Annual Dinner! There is something about hosting this fantastic event at the gorgeous Grosvenor House that makes it even more exciting! 

​

• Nando's order: Plain chicken butterfly with plain chips (Yes, I know, I have the taste buds of a 5 year old!) 

​

• Years in the industry: 10 months.

Favourite event: I haven't yet been to an event, however I will be helping out at the London Summer Reception 2022. I am very excited to experience my first event and see how all the team's hard work pays off on the day!

 

Nando's order: I get the chicken butterfly with medium spice (and regret it every time as it's too hot for me!) with Peri-salted chips and spiced grains. I always finish with a slice of Nando's cheesecake too!

 

Years in the industry: I started working part-time for Seventy in March 2022, helping out with the finance admin side of things - creating invoices, making sure our suppliers are all paid on time, paying salaries and VAT reconciliation etc.
