The Chelsea Harbour Hotel, London’s only 5 star all-suite hotel, is delighted to announce the appointment of Steven McGovern as the new Director of Sales & Marketing. Steven joins the team following the acquisition and rebranding of the hotel in March 2014 where it became the first property in Millennium & Copthorne’s new, global “Monogram Collection”.
Steven McGovern joins The Chelsea Harbour Hotel from a strong luxury background including Red Carnation Hotels and Guoman Hotels. Due to this breadth of knowledge and experience, McGovern has developed the ability to successfully create bespoke sales and marketing strategies, allowing him to promote performance, drive sales and customer satisfaction at The Chelsea Harbour Hotel.
His strong commercial background and reputation as an excellent sales leader has been acknowledged several times throughout his career, highlighted by his appointment as Global Sales Director of the year for the Red Carnation Group in 2007 and 2012. McGovern has gained a thorough understanding of the hotel market in and around London, including corporate companies and MICE sales in London.
Throughout his career McGovern has demonstrated strong and influential people management skills, focusing on communication and incentivising staff. His ability to identify and develop key strategy to grow the leisure, incentive and corporate areas of the hotel business, promoting growth and driving performance will allow him to make a substantial contribution to The Chelsea Harbour Hotel and in turn Millennium & Copthorne’s growing portfolio of Monogram Collection properties.
Doreen Boulding, who was appointed as General Manager of The Chelsea Harbour Hotel in June 2014 said of McGovern’s appointment “I am delighted to welcome Steven McGovern to The Chelsea Harbour Hotel family, as Director of Sales & Marketing. Steven will be an asset to the hotel and we are looking forward to working alongside him.”
