Case study Laura Steel, general manager Laura started out for Sodexo as a match-day waitress at Newcastle United Football Club (NUFC), aged 16. Two years later, having completed
her A-levels, she was promoted to room manager at NUFC, where she ran a hospitality area on a match day – all while studying for a degree in criminology at Northumbria University. Since then, Laura has worked as
assistant operations manager for four museum venues, become assistant commercial manager at NUFC and, since 2013, become general manager for our portfolio of north east cultural destinations. “I love the variety of my role,” she
says. “Some days I can go from finance meetings to operations meetings to
19
sales meetings and then go and run a dinner for 350 people. “I’ve recently been encouraging staff
to develop in their roles and nurturing future talent, and we have built up a lot of trust within our core team. In busy times I ensure I am there to assist my team – we have built up a strong relationship as they can always ask for help and know they will receive it.”

Continuing to build Sodexo’s
relationship with clients is paramount for Laura, and she’s eager to develop her knowledge and managerial skills. “In our first year we achieved great financial results and achieved four greens in Safeguard (Sodexo’s health and safety evaluation),” she says. “Engagement, development and sustainability are currently our focus. I hope to gain experience in contract bids and mobilisation and I want to progress through the company.” Laura has also been the recent
recipient of a ‘New Manager of the Year Award’ at the Star Awards, Sodexo’s internal, yet highly competitive, awards ceremony for high-performing staff. She was recognised for her commitment to her team and fast ability to learn – it does seem the sky is the limit for Laura.
