A people person with a knack for securing sponsorships is called for this newly created role.
The Asia Pacific Loan Market Association (APLMA), a pan-Asian trade association dedicated to promoting growth and liquidity in the primary and secondary loan markets, is searching for a director in charge of sponsorships to aid expansion and respond to the need to broaden the revenue base.
The APLMA organises over 40 seminars, conferences and networking events for its members annually across Asia and a multitasking person is needed to help out.
'We are now in expansion mode and we are seeking to recruit a dynamic person who has solid experience of securing sponsorship for major seminars and conferences,' said Janet Field, managing director.
Duties would include meeting with sponsors, cold-calling target sponsors, preparing sponsorship packages, negotiating contracts, collaborating with media partners and making sure that APLMA events are self-financing.
'It is not a desk job, but involves lots of meetings with potential sponsors,' Ms Field explained.
