The five-star Grand Jersey has appointed Elizabeth Raine as deputy general manager.
Miss Raine has 15 years’ experience in the hotel industry, most recently as deputy general manager at Hand Picked Hotel’s Rhinefield House, a four red-star luxury country house in the New Forest, Hampshire.
Hand Picked Hotels acquired Grand Jersey in September 2014, expanding its award-winning portfolio to 21 properties and strengthening its presence in the Channel Islands to three hotels – Grand Jersey, L’Horizon Beach Hotel & Spa and St Pierre Park Hotel & Golf Resort in Guernsey. This makes Hand Picked one of the largest hotel companies in the Channel Islands.
Miss Raine said: ‘This is a unique and exciting opportunity to be involved in the development of one of Jersey’s most prestigious hotel properties. The hotel has a fantastic reputation for providing its guests with unrivalled luxury experiences and I am delighted to be joining the hotel at such an exciting time in its history. Hand Picked has an excellent reputation for adding value to its properties and, with my experience, I hope to harness this new investment to improve the existing standards of excellence at Grand Jersey.’
Martin Kelly, general manager at Grand Jersey, said: ‘Elizabeth has a proven track record of success at a range of large and boutique four-star hotels in the UK and abroad. She is a highly qualified and experienced professional and will be a great asset to the team at Grand Jersey.’
Elizabeth has moved to Jersey from the UK. In her spare time she enjoys cycling, walking and nature. She is also a keen traveller and conservationist, having spent time working as a tour guide for eco-tourism businesses in South America.
