The Team

Since joining Hire Space Amy has written hundreds of thousands of words, discovered she's a dab-hand at social darts and spent a considerable amount of time in some of London's best venues. In her spare time Amy can probably be found hanging out with her cats, on 'another holiday' or on a quest for the perfect margarita.

Benjamin is generally considered to be a bit mad, or as he puts it, a maverick. A Warwick graduate, part-time saxophonist and less well-known for a supporting role in a hit Netflix comedy show, Benjamin is always looking for the next big thing to get involved in. He is also a big fan of fire cooking and has shown that anything is possible, even without alcohol.

Hailed from Bonnie Scotland, Cicely traveled far and wide across the Pacific and Indian seas before settling down in London. When she’s not giving it chat, she busies herself with thinking about marathons she would one day like to run. Like most Scots, she is usually seen with a drink in hand.

Born in Manchester, Ed grew up (mostly) in the countryside. After graduating university, he decided to book a 12 month trip to go travelling with his best mate. He's now moved to London to explore what the big city has to offer. Outside of work you'll find him planning his next trip or obsessively watching a Netflix series.

Ed worked on the General Election campaign in 2010 and as a speechwriter at UNESCO before starting Hire Space. He has a BA in English and an MA in Diplomacy, and spends his spare time defending Arsenal FC's managerial strategy.

Living in the distant land of zone 6 of London (really not that far!), Eliot has spent nearly 10 years in the Events Industry having worked for venues, suppliers and agencies. Eliot is an avid skier in the Winter and a sun seeker during the Summer! When not working or travelling, you will most likely find him on the tennis court or sinking a jagerbomb somewhere across town!

Felicity moved to London from the southern seaside in 2012. She had a fun first glimpse of London life coordinating events for a record label. Before joining Hire Space, she was producing conferences and trade shows. She loves live music, art exhibits, good food, and discovering the city by bicycle.

History grad with passion for games, George finished his degree and figured he may as well keep on writing things. Alongside his words on the blog, you can hear him as the voice of the EventLAB Podcast - Available on iTunes

Jess joined Hire Space in 2013 after graduating from Cambridge. She's incredibly pleased to be putting her English Literature degree and knowledge of Shakespeare to good use as part of the tech team. Jess spends any spare cash on gigs, unnecessary gadgets and (often unnecessary) gin.

Originally from France, Julie graduated university with a Marketing degree and has taken on various roles in marketing and data engineering since then. She enjoys frolicking around the globe, exploring new countries and cultures, trying new food, and attempting to become a master sushi chef and wine connoisseur.

Kier has spent the last year trying to rebel against the fact the he is obviously a Hipster. Originally hailing from Beccles, Suffolk he now likes Gin, Yoga, Avocados and Wham!

Coming from the land down under, Kim ventured to London from sunny Queensland to be rudely awakened by the UK's harsh winter. With a background in Marketing, Fashion and Events, she joined Hire Space in May 2017. She spends her spare time trying to soak up as much of the London life as possible (one bar at a time), regaling others with stories from Oz land, and dreaming of a sunny beach.

As one of the last remaining descendants of the Austrian 'Von Krumm' dynasty, Mister Schnitzel has traveled far from home to lend a hand to the Hire Space office. As a connoisseur of good taste and the finer things in life he is acting cultural attache, always on hand to help the team understand what it means to 'keep it classy'.

Originally from the sunny south coast of Sussex, Paul has worked for many years in digital and search marketing. Outside of work he enjoys watching the Saints, following the test and walking his dog.

After graduating with a BSc in Mathematics, Paul expanded his programming skill set by helping others solve problems and now applies this knowledge at Hire Space. His spare time is spent trying to prove rocket science isn't so hard by landing little green people on other planets.

Proud daycamp counsellor, fourth wall breaker, broken refrigerator (no chill), Perry moved to London from Montreal after graduating in Software Engineering. Perry would now like you to stop reading, stand up, stretch and go get some water 'cause he's 1000% sure you haven't left your desk in a while.

Honing five years' experience in the creative and music scene in China, Riemy rooted herself in London in 2013 and has since become an avid venue explorer in the city and beyond. She spends her idle hours on design projects, sampling hoppy bevies and making exercise contraptions for her hamster.

Rob hails from sunny Brighton where he studied economics & political science. In his spare time he loves to kick back with his little pooch Gonzo & read old 1920 design books on Scandinavian design inspired from his time living in Finland for a year, where he mastered the fine art of drinking gin & vodka while eating lemon pepper wings.

Romy ran away from France when she was 20. She got lost in Texas and then decided to move to London in 2016, where she worked in the Sales and Events industry. She then joined Hire Space in September 2018. During her spare time, she loves discovering new places (bars in particular), cooking and playing video games.

Tom is currently on placement at Hire Space from King's College London where he is currently in his third year studying for a bachelors degree in Computer Science. When he's not hacking the web, you can usually find him in close proximity to a gin bar around central London.

Tom spent several years drawing animals in clothes after graduating with a degree in illustration from Manchester. Realising the financial reward wasn't necessarily going to sustain an uncontrollable passion for spending money, he decided to move to Hamburg for a year, happily returning in 2016 for an opportunity to be part of the delightful Hire Space team.

Before co-founding Hire Space, he worked both as a strategy consultant with LEK and a Maths teacher at Paddington Academy having studied Theoretical Physics and then Finance at Cambridge. Outside the office, Will is enthusiastically proficient at 5-a-side and triathlon and has a keen interest in education.
