Hotel Co 51 has announced that Donovan Sumner has rejoined the company as regional director of operations for the UK as it restructures its operational team.
Sumner returns to Hotel Co 51 from Cycas Hospitality, where he spent two years as vice president of operations.
He will oversee the operator’s regional portfolio of 17 Marriott International-branded hotels, including 15 Moxy hotels.
He reprises his role with an enhanced portfolio and a new cluster general manager approach, which sees five general managers across England and Scotland report directly to him.
Sumner said: “It’s been inspiring to watch Hotel Co 51’s portfolio continue to go from strength to strength in recent years, with its ongoing award wins reflecting the company’s shared passion for delivering outstanding guest satisfaction.
“I’m excited to return to a group whose positive organisational culture and commitment to empowering its teams shines through every decision, and one which has designed sustainability into every hotel from the very start.”
Wayne Androliakos, CEO, added: “We’re delighted to welcome Donovan back to the Hotel Co 51 family. I’m confident he will be a tremendous asset to the team as we seek to build on each hotel’s solid sustainable and operational foundations and create a positive environment where our employees and guests can thrive.”
