Join ConCept G Global as a Project Liaison in Cape Town, where you'll manage exhibitions and events from start to finish. This role requires strong project management skills and a deep understanding of the local events market.
Dynamic and collaborative, with a strong focus on the local events scene.
**About the Role** We are looking for a sharp, dependable Project Liaison to join our growing exhibitions and events team in Cape Town. This is a hybrid role at the intersection of project coordination, client relationship management, and administration — perfect for someone who thrives on juggling moving parts, knows the local industry inside out, and can read a room (or a brief) the moment they walk into it.
