How long have you worked at the IPA? 

I joined the IPA as Events and Marketing Co-ordinator in October 2019 on a part-time basis as I had taken some time to be a mum at home to my now 5 year old boy, Maxwell. Although new to the world of insolvency, I enjoy all aspects of events from the initial stages of organisation to being at the event itself. 

What does your role entail? 

The role of Events and Marketing Coordinator is to assist in organising our annual roadshows and other events. I work closely with the Events Manager in doing this to ensure our IPA events run smoothly and to discuss new ideas. 

What has been your highlight? 

As this year we have had to deal with Covid, we have adapted our events accordingly from physical events into virtual events and webinars. I have really enjoyed this new addition and I feel we, as a team at the IPA, have worked brilliantly in making these changes work well.
