Professional background My career started in hotel management overseas. I moved back to the UK and worked for Esporta as a club manager, European director and south-east regional manager. I then joined Holmes Place Health Clubs as a regional manager prior to joining Hand Picked Hotels. Best piece of advice you’ve ever been given Don’t be afraid to take a risk. People might be surprised to know that... I once cooked for Pavarotti!

MD: Neil Henshaw
Professional background I left school at the age of 18 and have only ever worked within my own businesses: originally in the family business (high quality kitchens, bedrooms and bathrooms), then set up my own tanning business which evolved into a fi tness club. Opened a second fi tness club in 2000, now building a third. Best piece of advice you’ve ever been given Trust your instinct. People might be surprised to know that... I’m partial to a bag of pork scratchings.
