The Fairmont Olympic Hotel announces the appointment of Sven-Erik Richter as Director of Operations. Richter brings over 11 years of hotel experience to this role and is charged with leading, directing and overseeing hotel operations, including front office, rooms division, spa and food & beverage. Richter will also be responsible for ensuring AAA Five Diamond standards are met.
In 1997, Richter began his hospitality career at The Hotel InterContinental in Hamburg, Germany as a Hotel Management Trainee, prior to being a Captain, serving in the German Air Force, with the Human Intelligence Division.
Richter joined Raffles Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten in 2000 and has served in several Rooms Division positions until the beginning of 2004. In early 2004, he transferred to Raffles Le Montreux Palace in Switzerland, a founding member of The Leading Hotels of the World, as Assistant Director Of Front Office. Richter was responsible for the front office operation of the 102-year old heritage hotel, which was also the largest Five Star property on Lake Geneva. One year later Richter assumed the post of Director of Front office and was awarded Best Director of Front Office in Switzerland in 2006.
The hotel was re-branded from Raffles to Fairmont, and in 2007 Richter was appointed to his most recent role as Director of Operations for Fairmont Le Montreux Palace.
Sven-Erik Richter holds a Hotel Management Diploma earned through the Chamber of Commerce in Hamburg, Germany and is fluent in German, French and English.
