Elliott V-Smith
Head of Corporate Events & Production
A Short Bio
Elliott is an award winning event manager and has had over 13 years of experience in festival organisation and management. Though recently, Elliott has mostly been focusing on helping our corporate clients, his love for being on a festival site has never faltered. He’s been head of security for 25+ festivals, event manager for others as well as creative production and site manager for some larger name brand festivals. Elliott has stepped up to the plate to run FatLegs and chooses his clients carefully, always delivering above and beyond what he promises. He’s amassed a good bank of client testimonials and has led FatLegs into a new era.
What they Enjoy:
Elliott really likes getting into the nitty gritty of planning, risk assessments, the paperwork and the sitemaps. But most of all, he likes being on site. Wind, sun or the rain, he’s there for it all. He’s kitted out his tent and lives fairly comfortably whilst on site. Elliott is almost always on radio, and says that when he’s not working he can still feel the earpiece long after it’s been taken out.
Outside of Work:
When he’s not planning and running events, he can be found sound engineering, running the company or preparing equipment for hires… wait that’s not a break… does he ever take a break?
