VENUE management specialist, AEG Ogden, has commenced its recruitment drive for key positions at both the Oman Convention & Exhibition Centre and International Convention Centre (ICC) Sydney.
Oman Convention & Exhibition Centre will continue its human talent hunt following the appointment of its general manager last month. Positions for a director of sales & marketing and sales manager – exhibitions are available.
Trevor McCartney, general manager of Oman Convention & Exhibition Centre, said the recruitment of these roles and other senior executive positions was another major milestone in the lead up to the completion of the venue in late 2016.
Located four kilometres from the Muscat International Airport, the Oman Convention & Exhibition Centre is being constructed in two stages. The first, incorporating 22,000m2 of exhibition space will be completed in 2015, followed by stage two, featuring 3,200- and 450-seat tiered theatres, 14 meeting rooms and two ballrooms due for completion in late 2016.
Meanwhile, ICC Sydney is hiring for three positions – director of sales, international sales manager and communications manager.
ICC Sydney CEO and AEG Ogden’s director of convention centres, Geoff Donaghy, said: “These highly specialised positions require specific experience and an appropriate background and as such, we expect strong interest from applicants both in Australia and abroad.”
ICC Sydney is due for completion in December 2016.
