Penny is a highly experienced event and conference manager with over 25 years in related service industry sectors.

Penny started her working career with Hyatt Hotels where she spent 3 years working most aspects of the hotel, which allowed a very good view of all departments. 

After 3 years, Penny traveled to Turkey where her first year was spent setting up and running a small hotel on the South Coast.  She decided to extend her stay and worked as a rep for a Tour Company, in charge of 22 hotels. Her role included negotiating, raising and delivering against the seasonal contracts on behalf of the company.

On return to the UK in 1990, she joined the TFI Group where she worked for them for 10 years, covering roles such as Operations Director and also covered for the then MD during sabbatical and maternity leave.  She left in 1999, but came back in 2008 when TFI approached her with an offer to return to the ‘fold’, and she is now Divisional Director.  During her time back she has managed a number of large scale events and budgets up to the value of £7 million.
