Alasdair Trimmer
Head of Outdoor Events & Festivals
A Short Bio
Alasdair began his event management life planning events and fun days for young people aged 6-25 years old for charity. As time moved on he found himself further applying his skills on festival sites working closely under Elliott, learning everything he needed to and eventually became so proficient we had no choice but to designate him head of outdoor events and festivals. Alasdair doesn't suffer fools or poor quality of staff on his events and will go above and beyond to make sure there are no holes in his ship by training and helping staff improve in a kind but thorough manner. A strong and focused leadership style allows teams from different backgrounds, companies or groups to work together harmoniously.
What they Enjoy:
Alasdair loves a good planning session. Getting all the details ironed out so when he gets to site, everyone knows exactly what’s going on. Alasdair is the guy we send to set up the FOB or Forward Operating Base. Before the rest of the team arrive, he has everything up and running, printers full, laptops charged and radios ready to go… he just likes making everyone’s lives easier. It’s this forethought that makes him a pleasure to work with.
Outside of Work:
Alasdair plays Lacrosse for Scotland, he’s an elite athlete. He studied Mechanical Engineering at Loughborough University where he still holds keen roots and coaches teams regularly.
