Read MoreHello! My name is Abby Walburn, and I'm an American in London after moving to the UK to complete my MFA in Acting. I'm thrilled to apply for the any interesting role and would be available to start as early as December 15th. I bring over four years of experience in project planning and execution and believe both my professional background and personality make me a great fit for your team. As a heads-up, I only speak English, but I make up for that with enthusiasm and versatility!
My background includes time at Endeavor Business Media (formerly Gallo Business Media), where I was promoted from Community Development Executive to a self-created role of Event Operations Manager. I handled logistics for major conferences, managing everything from venues and contracts to budgeting and external communications. Balancing multiple high-revenue events, I became a pro at deadline management, detail orientation, and coordinating with cross-functional teams to ensure client satisfaction. Currently, I'm an Assistant Store Manager at Mejuri, a luxury jewelry brand, where I lead customer service, team development, operations, and visual merchandising. I've contributed $600k to Mejuri since July 2023, and while my current team would be sad to see me go, they support my ambitions for this role.
On a personal note, I’m an actor—my last project being a one-woman show I wrote and produced called "Manic Pixie Nightmare." I thrive in fast-paced, creative environments, and bring a sense of ambition and resourcefulness to everything I do. My experience managing operations, teams, and large-scale projects, plus my innate adaptability, make me confident I can exceed expectations in this role.
Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the chance to bring my mix of professionalism and personality to your team and am excited to discuss how my background aligns with your goals.
Warm regards,
Abby Walburn
