What do you do at MEC?

I am a Graduate Trainee in MEC Manchester’s Display Activation team, having recently moved across from the Planning Department. I work across a variety of interesting clients, including Princes, Shearings and Birmingham City University to name but a few. Since my arrival, I have been presented with a huge amount of learning opportunities, including MEC’s recently introduced Elevate Program, through which I have gained insight into the agency outside of my discipline.

Tell me something else…..?

As a lover of all things One Direction, I have made a habit of following their tours to numerous cities in the UK. I like to get involved with charities wherever possible, having completed a number of events including the Bupa 10k, Race for Life, and a number of others whilst at University. I am a very keen skier, and although not easy to do on a day to day basis, enjoy an annual trip to a snow covered mountain (staying on the mountain is the hard part).
