Lane End Conference Centre appoints conference and event executives following successful year

Buckinghamshire-based Lane End Conference Centre has appointed two new members of staff following the most financially successful year in the venue’s 46-year history.

Lydia Kenny and Holly Picot both join Lane End as conference and events executives with a focus on continuing the venue’s proud history of successful events and strong client relationships. Lydia’s past roles include a marketing and events officer position at Trinity College as well as Events and Reservations Consultant at Cliveden House Hotel and Spa. Holly’s previous experience includes customer facing roles with Harrods, Selfridges and a coordinating role at Cathay Pacific.

“Both Lydia and Holly have hit the ground running and settled into life at Lane End as if they had been working here for years,” comments Heni Fourie, Director of Sales and Marketing at Lane End Conference Centre. “We have a very close-knit sales team but both have already proven to be invaluable when it comes to customer service and events. They bring varied experience but ultimately a passion for this industry that will serve us well as we seek another successful year.”

These appointments come quickly off the back of Lane End’s best financial results in its 46-year history and ahead of the completion of a £2.2million investment plan which finishes in the summer.

Lydia Kenny, one of Lane End’s new employees, said: “The opportunity to work at Lane End and further my career in the events industry is something I am relishing. Already I feel right at home and I cannot wait to help the venue make 2016 a successful year.”

“My role at Lane End will not only help me move forward with my own career, but it will undoubtedly help me grow personally too,” added Holly Picot. “It’s a different role to what I have experienced in the past but already I am learning more about the industry and I cannot wait to see what 2016 holds for both myself and Lane End.” Lane End Conference Centre offers a unique modular design with five distinct and completely self-contained conference buildings – each offering bedrooms, meeting facilities, bar, lounge and dining room – available for exclusive use.
