Mary Foster

Events Director

Mary is a calming force in the office. She has the art of making (all) things on her agenda happen, down to a science. With 22 years experience in the event industry as a client, agency owner and now W&O Event Director, there is nothing she doesn’t know about the industry. Starting her early career with a solid grounding in logistics, she moved on to expand her skills and expertise in all key areas of staging, technical and creative production.

Over the years she has managed a wide range of live events in the UK & overseas, for corporate and public sector clients, including the Welsh Assembly Government, Hewlett-Packard, Learning and Skills Council, Nickelodeon, British Property Federation, Kraft International, Land Securities & PPP healthcare.

As Event Director, Mary heads up a range of client accounts/events. With established long term client relationships, she is constantly on the look-out for new ideas and technology, developing existing event programmes to ensure they continue to shine and achieve their maximum potential.   

With a passion for photography and all things creative, she spends her spare time out with her camera on the coast, visiting art galleries and enjoying the world of the theatre.
