IHG Hotels and Resorts (IHG) has announced the promotion of Brodie Green to director of operations at Kimpton Blythswood Square Hotel and Spa, following a career in Food and Beverage leadership at Voco Grand Central Glasgow.
Having worked in hospitality from the age of 18 and promoted through the ranks, Green began her career working as assistant F&B manager at the renowned 29 Royal Exchange Square in 2017, quickly advancing to manager before joining Voco Grand Central as restaurant manager in 2019.
Despite industry challenges during the Covid-19 pandemic, Green took on a role at Auchrannie Hotel in Arran in 2021 before returning to Voco Grand Central, Glasgow as C&B manager, later securing the F&B lead position in 2022.
Green’s promotion further strengthens female leadership at IHG Glasgow – which already makes up well over 50% of the management team.
As a result of her move, Voco Grand Central is now recruiting for two key positions: bar manager at Champagne Central and F&B operations manager at voco Grand Central.
Green said: “I’m honoured to step into this role at Kimpton Blythswood Square Hotel and Spa and to continue my career path with IHG.
“My journey with the team here has been incredible, and I’m looking forward to working at Glasgow city centre’s only five-star hotel to continue delivering excellence in guest experience and operations.”
Marcello Ventisei, general manager, added: “Brodie has been an invaluable part of our team, and I’ve personally had the privilege of working closely with her and witnessing her dedication, leadership, and passion for hospitality firsthand.
“Her drive and commitment have played a key role in driving excellence across our F&B operations, and her promotion to director of operations at Kimpton Blythswood Square is incredibly well deserved. While she will be greatly missed at Voco Grand Central, I couldn’t be prouder to see her take this next step within IHG.”
