“I feel privileged to be granted the opportunity to design and direct the strategy for, and delivery of, operations at these two fantastic hotels for the Radisson brand. Since rejoining the company in 2020, I have thoroughly enjoyed playing a key role in providing outstanding customer care and helping to make the Radisson properties a consistently excellent choice for visitors to the incredible city of Dubai. I am excited to work with what I believe are some of the best teams in the industry and help bring Radisson’s already fantastic offering to the next level.” said Phil Roberts, Cluster Director of Operations, Radisson Blu and Park Inn.

Phil Roberts began his career as Executive Head Chef at Bolton Moat House Hotel at the age of 21 and was quickly recruited by Radisson to work for four years in the same role at Park Inn Hotel, Northampton, and Park Inn Hotel, Telford.
