Alice Jalley

Alice Jalley currently lives in West Sussex and attended the University of Chichester where she gained a first-class degree in BA (Hons) Event Management. Alice’s event management experience started in the wedding industry where she worked as a venue coordinator at a barn wedding venue helping couples plan their special day. During Alice’s time working at a wedding venue, she became passionate about sustainability and finding ways to lessen the impact of events whilst also making the event unforgettable. To delve deeper into the environmental impacts of weddings, Alice focused her final year University dissertation on how to reduce waste at weddings. After University, Alice moved on to working in pharmaceutical events where she now travels the world delivering conferences for big name pharmaceutical companies. Alice is enjoying the different areas of the event industry and expanding her skills by working with different people and clients. Doing events around the world has opened Alice’s eyes to different cultures and how to be flexible within the different environments. In her spare time Alice enjoys walking her dogs along the beach, reading books, and watching different series on Netflix. Alice also enjoys playing netball and exploring the different countries she gets to travel too within her job and trying the local food dishes.
