Sleek Events has appointed Georgina Oppenheimer as US-based director of events, marking a significant step in the independent agency’s international growth as it responds to growing client demand stateside.
Oppenheimer brings more than a decade of experience designing and delivering live experiences, festivals and brand events for organisations including UEFA, TikTok, Bloomberg and Apple. Her background spans architecture, design, production and experiential delivery.
She will lead Sleek’s flagship US projects while supporting client growth, new business development and the continued build-out of its US operation. Sleek’s US business is expected to generate approximately $12m in turnover this year across existing clients.
The appointment reflects the agency’s independent model. Founded in 2013 by Jennifer Davidson with no outside investment, Sleek has grown from a team of five in 2020 to over 60 employees today. That independence, Davidson says, has enabled the business to move quickly in response to what clients are asking for.
Davidson said: “Georgina is a brilliant addition to that next chapter. She brings an unusual combination of creative experience, commercial thinking and production expertise, but just as importantly, she has a real energy and people-first approach.”
Oppenheimer added: “What attracted me was the combination of ambition and genuine care for how that ambition is delivered. I’m looking forward to bringing my experience to Sleek’s event portfolio and working with the wider team to create experiences that inspire, educate and entertain.”
