I went to the Hereford college of Technology where I trained as a pastry chef . I started my career in 1994 at the Bath Spa Hotel in Bath as a commis waiter and moved onto a trainee management program, whereafter I soon became the F&B manager. After working at various country hotels in the position of F&B manager I moved to London as Operations Manager of the Halcyon Hotel in Holland Park where I also looked after the day to day running of Fawsley hall in Northampton. In 2003 as Deputy General Manager I helped to open the Grange City Hotel in Tower Hill. I then helped to open the Bentley Hotel in London again as Deputy General Manager. Today I find myself at The Chesterfield Mayfair and am enjoying the challenge of working at this fantastic property.

I started my career at The Chesterfield as a Trainee Manager, in the past few years I have grown with the hotel and progressed through the ranks, first as a Reservations Supervisor then as Manager. In this time I have come to know many of our guests as we look to add those personal touches from the reservations point of view. As I now take on my new role as Front Office Manager I look forward to welcoming each every one of you to your home away from home.

I joined the Chesterfield Mayfair Hotel in February 2006 after working for the last five years with the Hilton Group.  I am responsible for ensuring that my department provides a high quality event management service by exceeding customer expectations and managing the changing requirements of our guests professionally and efficiently.

I became a member of the Chesterfield Mayfair team in June 2005 as the Events Manager having worked at our sister hotel The Montague in Bloomsbury for the previous 5 years.  My role in the conference and events team is to provide an exceptional meeting and dining experience and to ensure your event is a success.

I have worked in conference & banqueting for the past 20 years.  My role at the Chesterfield involves working closely with our events office to ensure that everything runs smoothly on the day for our guests.  I enjoy anticipating my guests’ needs and meeting their specific requirements so that their dinner, party or meeting with us is perfect and they want to return again.

I have spent 16 years working in London hotels within various concierge departments. I joined The Chesterfield Mayfair in September 2000 where I worked my way up the concierge ladder and was promoted to Head Concierge in October 2006. It gives me great pleasure to lead my concierge team, who are fully committed in providing
each individual guest with a warm, friendly and an attentive service.
