It’s exciting to have the opportunity to work for such a fantastic portfolio of venues and its great time to be coming on board. There are lots of exciting initiatives in the pipeline, including the launch of imago’s new branding, to raise awareness of everything imago has to offer and I am looking forward to being involved in its continued success.”
