Business Events Adelaide has made a number of key appointments and internal promotions, as part of a revitalised organisational structure.
The newly-promoted director of national bidding and events, Marcia Mudge, will be supported by three experienced business development managers. Rechelle Hatcher joins the team to take over the New South Wales region, Mark Burns will manage the Victorian market, while Paul Shaw has been appointed to oversee the Rest of Australia and New Zealand.
The international association business development team has been bolstered by the recruitment of Marc Leopold as business development manager, while long serving domestic business development manager Edgar Navarro-Perez becomes senior international business development manager.
Business Events Adelaide’s commitment to the growth opportunities offered internationally is further demonstrated by its strong presence in Asia, with director of Asia Helen Xu joined by Jessie Yu in promoting Adelaide as the ideal corporate incentive destination.
The global effort will be led by Mark Phelps, who has stepped up to become director for international bidding.
Supporting the new business development structure is a reinvigorated approach to research, led by Andrew McKenna as research manager. Courtney Wilkinson also joins the team in the role of business development associate, bringing with her experience of events, sponsorship and marketing.
