7 reasons to get into event jobs

It could be a great time to be looking for event jobs according to specialist live jobs agency Live Recruitment. These just some of the reasons:

1. The industry is experience changes to legislation on employment and other regulations and is having to rethink its approach to recruitment, freelancers and staffing of events
2. More than 50 colleges and Universities are offering courses in event management, responsible events and international events – all signs that the industry is being formally recognised and there is access to training for personal development and improvement.
3. New standards are introduced e.g. BS8901, allowing access for new people with new skills to an industry where experience and length of service to the industry have traditionally factored heavily in favour of the old hands.
4. Budgets may be tight but budgets and the number of events are still looking to be holding up across the live arena including large events, conventions, training and meetings.
5. Brand managers are looking to build face to face relationships with customers through events and sponsorship and traditional mass media markets get resigned to the back of the queue
6. We have one of the world’s biggest events coming soon – in the shape of the 2012 Olympics. A time when brands are going to get active and get involved in attempt to catch the spirit. Active brands mean, live events.
7. Salaries are strong and inline with other marketing type agencies such as PR, advertising and marketing. Top performers can still command top drawer salaries and benefits packages.
