Filip Boyen, who originates from Belgium, has a long history within the hotel sector, most recently as Chief Operating Officer & Senior Vice President at Belmond, a position he held for over six years. In this role he demonstrated his skills not only in operational excellence and core revenue management but was also instrumental in the implementation of guest satisfaction measurement and monitoring programmes, and overall performance management of the international team. His 30 years in the hospitality industry have seen him rise through the ranks from the roots of the business. He began his career as Commis & Chef de Partie in Belgium, progressing to hotel management in destinations from Moscow to Tahiti, where he first joined Orient-Express Hotels, now Belmond.
