The two-year paid graduate program commenced last month and will see Emily Howe gain exposure to multiple disciplines - from business development to event planning and event delivery, plus insights into customer service, finance, risk and marketing.
ICC Sydney Chief Executive Adam Mather-Brown noted “at ICC Sydney, we take our commitment to help attract, nurture and develop the future leaders of our industry seriously. We offer long term, flexible and rewarding careers at ICC Sydney and invest in developing holistic event professionals.
“This initiative delivered in partnership with the University of Technology Sydney adds to our portfolio of programs that ensure career development and future proofs our industry.

UTS Business School Director, Bachelor of Management, Dr Meg Hibbins enthused “we’re delighted to once again join forces with the team of ICC Sydney to create an unparalleled opportunity for our event management graduates to experience working in Australia’s premier venue.
“Up and coming event managers are looking to put their knowledge into practice and accelerate their careers with a real-world industry experience. This partnership with ICC Sydney provides a clear pathway to gain access into a highly competitive industry that our best and brightest students can aspire to as they complete their studies with UTS.”
Speaking of her placement into the program, Howe shared “I couldn’t be more excited to put into practice the learnings that I’ve gained through my degree from the University of Technology Sydney by joining ICC Sydney as a new graduate.
“Starting off in a coordinator position in the Business Development department, I can’t wait to experience the mentoring and interaction with clients that will boost my future career prospects.”
