Fiona will also take direct responsibility for all PR matters at the Corinthia flagship hotel in London, where she will be based.
Fiona joins Corinthia Hotels following a successful career in travel and media spanning 23 years, having worked in London and overseas.
Prior to joining Corinthia, Fiona was director of PR and brand development for Kuoni Travel. She was responsible for international creative campaigns, PR and CSR, and the media strategy behind the brand’s retail growth that saw new luxury travel stores open across the UK, as well as the launch of a desirable partnership with the John Lewis Group. Fiona also worked for Condé Nast Traveller as commercial business director and acting publisher, and for Tatler as advertisement director.
