Get to know Bethanie Summerfield, Walpole's Marketing and Events Manager

The Interview
20th December 2023

When did you join Walpole and how did you come to work here?

I joined Walpole in May 2021. Prior to that I was living in Ireland for a couple of years with my husband. When we moved back to London, the job was available at Walpole, and I have always worked in the events industry, so it was great timing!

What do you do at Walpole?

I am Events & Marketing Manager at Walpole, helping our Head of Events plan and execute our busy events calendar throughout the year.

What’s your favourite aspect of the job?

Getting to work with some of the best venues and elevating our events by working with brands across the different sectors in the membership.

The last thing I read or listened to on my commute was: My go to is the Today at Apple playlist.

The ultimate luxury under £25 is: Going to a florist and choosing your own stems.
