Gemma Hill

I’m Gemma Hill, Conference and Events Manager at Manchester Met University.

I have been working at the University for 2 years now and I have worked in the Events Industry for over 13 years. The University is a new and exciting challenge for me as I have always worked in Arts venues. I moved to MMU from The Bridgewater Hall, after 8 wonderful years, and worked at The Lowry Arts and Entertainment centre for 2 years prior to that.

Watching the new Arts and Humanities building (Grosvenor) open its doors has been very exciting. The theatres are wonderful, versatile spaces with state-of-the-art equipment and the foyers, with huge digital screens and mini grand pianos, create a sense of creativity as soon as you walk in, plus there’s the new, trendy, Grove restaurant and bar making the Arts and Humanities building a truly unique space on campus. I’m really looking forward to organising and delivering some more artistic events here!
