Nick Plunkett Dillon
Nick has worked in the major sports event industry for over 30 years. He started at The European Tour Golf where he was responsible for the staging of the Tour’s key events including the Ryder Cup and PGA Championship before setting up an independent event management company, working as Tournament Manager for the Scottish Open in Loch Lomond.
This was followed by 4 years working as Head of Production at TEAM Marketing in Switzerland responsible for the delivery of UEFA Champions League branding programme and the 2006 FIFA World Cup. He returned to the UK to launch the original fabric frame display system in partnership with CSM Live (formerly Icon) before joining them full time in 2010 to head up their international football division. During this time, he directed multiple branding and signage projects, including 4 FIFA World Cups.
Having worked as both client and supplier, the importance of understanding and appreciating both perspectives has been central to how he works and a key to his success. First and foremost though, he is a passionate believer in the critical importance of rigorous and detailed planning and processes in successfully delivering projects on time and on budget.
