The Chancery Rosewood has unveiled three senior appointments, with the addition of Stephanie Clarke as director of Sales and Marketing, Sophie Rough as director of Talent and Culture, and Alice Jónsdóttir as director of Communications.
The Grade II listed building is being reimagined as a new retail destination and Rosewood Hotels and Resorts luxury hotel, and is set to open in Mayfair in 2025.
Prior to joining Rosewood, Clarke led Sales and Marketing at The Carlton Tower Jumeirah and The Lowndes London. She began her career at The Ritz Paris where she played an integral role overseeing sales and marketing during the hotel’s four-year renovation project. She later became director of Sales and Marketing at Le Royal Monceau Raffles Paris.
Rough meanwhile joins The Chancery Rosewood from Soho House and Co, where she served as head of People. During her time there she helped enhance work culture by improving the employee experience and successfully launched several people focused initiatives.
In her new role, Rosewood said she plans to maintain, and build on its “strong culture” through the selection, development and engagement of associates.
Jónsdóttir was previously the head of PR and Communications of Corinthia Hotels where she helped standardise communications, creating a comprehensive messaging framework for the flagship hotel and portfolio properties. She brings a wealth of expertise in shaping brand identities and fostering strategic relationships.
Located in Mayfair, The Chancery Rosewood will feature 144 “thoughtfully designed” guestrooms and suites, as well as revitalised public spaces and dining venues designed by Tristan Auer and Bar Studio. Additional amenities and facilities include a Yabu Pushelberg designed integrative wellness facility, several retail outlets, and a selection of meeting and events spaces including a state-of-the-art ballroom. The hotel will mark Rosewood Hotels and Resorts’ second property in London and ninth in Europe.
The Chancery Rosewood’s managing director Michael Bonsor said: “We are delighted to have Stéphanie, Sophie and Alice join our commercial team at The Chancery Rosewood. I am confident that their respective divisions will flourish under their leadership. Each brings a wealth of international experience and insight in the luxury hotel industry, in addition to a notable track record of managing high-performing teams.”
