working with Sytske
Over the years, Sytske has worked alongside clients, collaborators, and event teams across the globe. Here’s what a few of them have shared about working with her — from long-standing partnerships to fast-turnaround productions under pressure.
I cannot recommend Sytske highly enough. Her vast experience and knowledge of event production engender peace of mind when pulling together complex events. Her tenacity and problem-solving abilities are second to none. She has proven herself an invaluable team member repeatedly and I would be lost without her.
Beverley Whitrick
COO, Music Venue Trust & Event Producer, Venues Day
Sytske first worked with me in 2011, when we took responsibility for the ILMC Production Meeting, which ran until 2022. As well as that event we continued to work together on a myriad of other events. During this time Sytske has proved to be a reliable, hardworking, knowledgeable person in relation to production of events, if she doesn’t know the answer will know someone who does. She has an incredibly wide number of contacts within the event industry, both in the production and promotion field. She is driven and organised, both in her professional and personal life, so as to ensure the end result is as required. She is an intelligent, very honest, gregarious and caring person who I am proud to have worked with and to say has become a good friend.
Carl A H Martin
Working with Sytske at the Olympic Games was an absolute pleasure. As a project manager, she’s incredibly professional, capable, and reliable—someone you can always count on to get things done with precision and calm under pressure. But what really sets her apart is her ability to combine that professionalism with a fun, personable attitude that makes collaboration not only productive but genuinely enjoyable. She brings both structure and spirit to the team—an invaluable combination.
