Support press attendance, media accreditation (where needed), press kits, interview scheduling, photo calls, and media zones; coordinate with photographers/videographers.

Ensure all event touchpoints follow airline brand guidelines (visual identity, tone of voice, templates, collateral, uniforms/appearance standards).

Brief and manage event agencies and vendors by obtaining quotes, comparing proposals, managing contracts/SLAs, and ensure delivery against scope.

Build events budget, raise PR/POs, track spend, reconcile invoices, and ensure compliance with procurement and governance processes.

Coordinate permits, insurance, security requirements, HSE considerations, crowd control, and contingency plans (weather/operational disruptions).

Ensure event plans do not conflict with operations and airport constraints, coordinate timings with flight schedules, VIP movements, and operational peak periods.

Produce post-event reports covering outcomes, media/social coverage, attendance, lessons learned, and recommendations, archive assets and documentation.
