Our people


min John Wickens
John, Managing Director and Chairman of the esc group of companies, originally trained as an electrician and cut his teeth working on the technical production of international exhibitions and conferences. John has been involved in the events industry for 15 years and has managed some of the most prestigious events in the UK and Europe. John dreams of Formula 1 success but sadly has to settle with speeding over the finish line on his tractor. Still, his son thinks he's Michael Schumacher!!!!

Clare Wickens
Clare was born in Cambridge and spent her working life before esc working in the recruitment business, where she says she soon learnt the foolishness of trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. For the last 5 years she has dealt with all personnel requirements for the special events that esc has become so renowned for – finding event personnel that are memorable for all the right reasons.

When she is not working part time on esc projects Clare can be found at home raising a couple of special projects of her own or occasionally hitting the shops to indulge her passion for handbags.


min Mark Watts
Mark's professional background includes working as a project manager for an AV company, as operations manager for a special event company before he brought his vast technical knowledge, project management experience and organisational skills to the esc events team.

Marks' first love is music and he likes nothing better than spending hours on the decks honing the perfect mix.

Sian Gray
With 10 years experience of running events within the hospitality, fitness and corporate industries, Sian brings a wealth of knowledge and understanding to all events she works on. Being so good looking and well natured also helps and she is by far the friendliest person in the office often inspiring her team to work harder and stay motivated, even in the brink of despair. She has a passion for weddings and enjoys nothing better that making a bride’s dreams come true, which is handy as she is getting married herself this year. Sian is also Welsh which has earned her the nickname of 'Oi! What's Occurring?'
