Partnering with the hotel sector on critical leadership appointments
I work exclusively within the hotels, resorts and lifestyle hospitality sector, partnering with owners, operators, management companies and investors to identify, engage and secure proven leaders through a bespoke and confidential search process.
Every assignment begins with a conversation

For Hotel & Hospitality Leaders
Throughout my career, I have built long-standing relationships with hospitality leaders across executive, commercial, operational, finance, asset management and people leadership roles.
Whether you are considering your next step, seeking market insight or simply wish to expand your network, I welcome confidential conversations with experienced hospitality professionals.
Not every conversation needs to lead to a move
The strongest professional relationships are often built over many years.
Why Clients Work With Me
For more than two decades, I have partnered with hospitality businesses on leadership appointments that shape
performance, culture and growth.
I work exclusively with a select number of clients at any one time, ensuring every assignment receives the focus,
discretion and commitment it deserves.
Clients value:
- A highly personalised and bespoke approach
- Executive, retained and exclusive contingent search solutions
- Direct access throughout every assignment
- Deep hospitality market knowledge
- Seasoned industry connections
- Absolute discretion and confidentiality
No two assignments are ever the same
Every search is tailored to the specific needs of the business, combining market insight, targeted research and direct
engagement with individuals who are often inaccessible through traditional recruitment channels.
Many of the most successful appointments often begin before a formal search is underway. They start with relationships, trust and a clear understanding of what success looks like.
About Hayley
Every assignment is handled personally and with complete discretion
Before moving into hospitality search, I built my career within the hotel industry, holding a national commercial role and subsequently leading hotels as a General Manager in both London and regional markets.
That experience provided the foundation for a career spanning more than two decades in hospitality search, building trusted relationships across the sector and supporting clients on critical leadership appointments.
Today, I partner with owners, operators, management companies and investors across the hotels, resorts and lifestyle hospitality sector, helping them secure leaders who can make a meaningful impact on performance, growth and long-term value.
A Confidential Conversation
Whether you are planning a strategic leadership hire, considering succession options or seeking market insight,
I would welcome the opportunity to discuss your requirements.
Every assignment begins with a confidential conversation
