Celia Scholtz

I am the operations manager at Cavendish Group. I got into the events industry because I love putting an event together and seeing it come alive. I am a social person and couldn't spend my working life sat behind a desk; I enjoy the interaction that events provide on many levels. I have worked at Cavendish since May 2005.

I was attracted to this particular role because at the time I joined the Cavendish Group it was undergoing a facelift and I wanted to be a part of that progression.

Not many people know that I have a degree in communications and psychology. Communications has helped greatly in my career but psychology has been equally as important. We are all unique individuals and as such I try to understand a person so I can work better with them.

The best event I've been involved in was the centenary event for Michelin. It was a week long event in London with various lunches, dinners and cocktail receptions for everyone from Michelin starred chefs to employees.

Outside of work I spend my time with friends and family. I am a real foodie and love trying new restaurants, cuisines and hosting dinner parties. Great food and good wine can make it all better, sometimes.
