Another key addition to The
Westminster Collection’s strong Board line up brings the marketing consortium’s
head count of influencers to five. Jonathan Morris, commercial director at
Grade II listed townhouse No.11 Cavendish Square, takes up his position on the
Board with immediate effect.
“Following the announcement of the resignation of Charles Howard of 10-11
Carlton House Terrace from the TWC Board at our last EGM at the RIGB, I am
delighted to confirm that Jonathan Morris, from No.11 Cavendish Square, has put
himself forward, and been accepted by the directors, as his replacement on the
Board,” said chief executive of The Westminster Collection, René Dee.
Morris’s 18-year career in hotels and venues in London includes positions as
sales and facilities manager at The Royal Aeronautical Society, venue manager
at The Institution of Electrical Engineers and also hotel manager roles with
the Hilton and Thistle Hotels in Mayfair, Wallingford and Birmingham.
Highlighting the personal strengths he can bring to the Board, Morris says:
“The Westminster Collection enables venues in the City of Westminster to
maintain a presence in a competitive industry through proactive marketing,
including monthly newsletters, topical blogs and venue videos, which are shared
with the Collection’s large database of UK event professionals.
“I challenge the status quo and strive to bring organisers something new,
whether it is a product or service. My approach is to deliver excellence and to
set the trend – attributes I will use in my role as Board member of The
Westminster Collection.”
Speaking of the immediate responsibilities of The Westminster Collection Board,
Dee says: “The Westminster Collection is in an exciting period of development
and the prospects are good, so we are looking forward to the newly configured
Board ensuring that our strategic direction and policies for future growth and
development fulfil the expectations and needs of all members of The Westminster
Collection.”
Jonathan Morris joins Board director Wendy Greenhalgh, director of sales and
marketing at One Great George Street, company secretary Nigel Collett,
operations director at One Wimpole Street (the new home of The Westminster
Collection’s registered and administrative office), and Allyson Hargreaves,
head of business operations at St Martin-in-the-Fields. René Dee, chief
executive officer of The Westminster Collection is chairman of the Board.
