Building a career on contract work in ticketing

What you will learn

Brooke has built an entire career on contract work, moving from one major global event to the next rather than staying in a single permanent role. This session tackles the fear that keeps many ticketing professionals from making that leap, and shows you what a career built entirely on contract work can actually look like.

• Your reputation is your currency. How to build a long, successful career in ticketing without ever holding a permanent position
• Leaving ego at the door. What it actually takes to move from one major global event to the next, from the Olympics to FIFA World Cups to regional festivals
• It's not always easy or fun but it's never boring. How to manage the practical realities of contract work, including gaps between contracts, building a reputation, and staying employable
• Learnings and second chances. Why contract work can be a strength rather than a risk, and how to make that case to yourself and to anyone considering the same path
