Melissa is continuously asked by her industry colleagues to provide and recommend talented, enthusiastic, reliable and capable industry professionals for various casual, contract and full-time roles. From event runners and assistants to event managers and producers, positions for all levels become available all the time.

Whether you are training in event management, have a number of years industry experience, or are the best of the best; if you would like to broaden your event portfolio or expand on your skills, email me your CV and a covering letter outlining the types of events you would like to work on and I will do my best to match your requirements with incoming requests.

Volunteering at Events

Around 4.4 million Australians make a difference in their local community by volunteering either for organisations or at the thousands of events held each year. By performing a wide range of tasks for a diverse range of organisations, these individuals gain invaluable skills, knowledge and industry contacts whilst helping others at the same time!

It never ceases to amaze me about all the wonderful things that Starlight can achieve by having you and our other generous and caring supporters right there with us. You really are bringing magic into the lives of seriously ill children. I want to thank you on behalf of those families you bring brightness to. Your support has been so welcome".
Jill Weekes - Chief Executive, Starlight Childrens Foundation.
