Black Book, the UK based venue finding and events agency, has announced the appointment of Karen Bradshaw as senior venue finder.
Bradshaw brings more than 15 years of experience in venue finding and event sourcing, including previous roles at HRG and Ashfield Meetings & Events.
Having lived across several countries and visited 23 destinations spanning five continents, she brings first-hand knowledge of destinations, properties, and what makes an event space work for clients, insight the company says cannot be replicated through formal training alone.
In her new role, Bradshaw will source hotels and event spaces for Black Book’s clients worldwide.
Joe O’Connell, CEO of Black Book, commented: “We’re really pleased to have someone with Karen’s experience and reputation join Black Book. As we continue to evolve as a company, bringing in people of this calibre is exactly what helps us keep raising the bar for our clients.”
Bradshaw said she was thrilled to be joining the Black Book team. “After a few years away in pharma advertising, I’ve learned a lot and gained some invaluable experience, but now I’m so excited to be back home in the world of events. I look forward to reconnecting with familiar faces and making new connections.”
