• Organize site inspections and pitches in the event space.
• Negotiate and close event contracts, focusing on speed and value.
• Report weekly on pipeline, meetings, and bookings.

• Strong hunter mentality: thrives on cold calls, networking, and closing.
• Brussels network in corporate or event agencies is a strong plus.
