Fairmont Windsor Park names senior leadership team

Fairmont Windsor Park, a part of the Arora Group, has named its senior leadership team to take on responsibility for the hotel that is expected to open in 2021.

Andrew Brown will head the division as general manager, providing the role with 25 years’ experience.

Jessica Podolsky, who joins from Starwood and Marriott, will support Brown after being appointed as director of operations at the hotel.

The rooms division will comprise James Lane as front of house manager and Sigita Baltrusaitiene as executive housekeeper.

A former chef at the seven-star Hotel Burj al Arab, Patrick Mudalige will fill the position of director of food and beverage.

Finally, the commercial team will include John Swift and Katarina Nielson as sales director and marketing and communications director respectively.

Previously the Savill Court Hotel and Spa, the establishment was acquired by Arora and has since undertaken a complete redevelopment of the former building and grounds.

Brown said: “We are absolutely delighted and excited to be opening Fairmont Windsor Park and I am confident that my team has the experience and skill to embrace the opportunity. 

“We can’t wait to welcome back those many guests both at home in the UK and overseas who are so looking forward to travel again and enjoy luxury hospitality.”
