Languages Alongside fluent English, candidates will need to speak either Spanish or Portuguese. Spanish would be particularly attractive, while candidates speaking both languages would be of significant interest. Career development One of the most attractive aspects of the opportunity is the potential for progression. The portfolio is expanding internationally, and the successful candidate will be joining at a stage where they can genuinely grow alongside the business. As the portfolio develops, there should be opportunities to take on greater responsibility, broaden your commercial exposure and progress within the wider media and events business. For someone looking for their next step,  or potentially their first meaningful move into media and events this offers an excellent opportunity to join a growing organisation and build a long-term career within the industry.
