Duncan’s knowledge of, and passion for, the community that FESPA serves made it an easy decision to return in 2022 to lead the Marketing and Events team after almost three years delivering world-class events for the HR community. 

With more than 20 years’ experience in B2B communications and events, Duncan’s experience as a senior journalist and latterly event director of all event formats in several sectors – from public safety, FMCG and food and drink - prepared him well to play a key role in FESPA’s growth with a focus on meaningful content and connections for the global print community delivered through our awards programme,conferences, and feature events at our global exhibitions from 2010-2019. 

Duncan enjoys golfing, paddleboarding and other outdoor pursuits with friends and his two teenage daughters. 

Sara has over 15 years’ experience in Sales having worked in recruitment and exhibitions prior to joining FESPA in 2011. Sara works across the global portfolio of exhibitions that are delivered by FESPA, particularly focusing on the European shows and the European Sign Expo of which Sara headed up, along with the then Marketing Manager, the launch of the show in London 2013. She has since been instrumental in its’ year on year growth.
 
Before sales, Sara had a long career in the aviation industry, working long haul with Virgin Atlantic and towards the end of her career, Air New Zealand, as both a Supervisor and Instructor. Since leaving flying, Sara has been able to draw on her experience and continues to have a great passion for the delivery of the excellent customer service and the high level of standards that FESPA is renowned for.
 
In her spare time, needless to say, she still loves to travel and spend time with family and friends.
