The Team
Alex Bridle, Managing Director
Alex has worked in the hospitality and event management industries for over 15 years with a career that has included senior managerial positions at Shangri-La Hotel Singapore, Grosvenor House Hotel London and Ballymore Leisure (London based group of bars, restaurants and night clubs). Prior to joining the world of 24/7 hospitality and event organisation, Alex was Marketing & Promotions Manager for publisher Newsweek International based in London and Hong Kong and then Time magazine in Hong Kong.
Alex’s introduction to event organisation began in 1987 with the unprecedented overland charity expedition “The Cape to Cape” where a 20 year old Dennis fire engine travelled 22,000 miles from Cape North on the Arctic Circle to Cape Agulhas, the southern-most tip of Africa in aid of The Samaritans. Organised and executed by a team of individuals, the majority of whom were under 25, all of whom had full time jobs, The Cape to Cape raised in excess of £250,000 for The Samaritans.

Natalie has worked in event management for nearly 15 years with valuable experience in both London and Guernsey.
