our history

Banks Sadler was established in 1982 and is still privately owned and fully independent.

The founding directors came from the marketing and events department of Grand Met Hotels and recognised a gap in the market for a professional, independent event management and venue finding service.

In 1992 a dedicated IATA travel management department was added to provide the high end support that our clients’ international events needed.

The company’s head office has always been located in London. To provide regional support to our clients offices were opened in York (2005), Paris (2007), Dusseldorf (2007) and New York (2011).

The events and meetings industry has seen major changes over the last 25 years and Banks Sadler has been at the forefront of shaping the industry. Today we are recognised as one of the leading names in the venue finding and event management sector and enjoy a reputation second to none.

Our ethos of stringent self evaluation and continuous improvement will help ensure it stays that way.
