Ennismore, the fastest-growing lifestyle hospitality company, today announces the appointment of Llewellyn Wyeth as Vice President of Operations, Pacific, strengthening its regional leadership as the group continues to grow its collective across Australia and the wider Pacific region.
Based in Melbourne, Wyeth will provide strategic and operational leadership across Ennismore’s Pacific network. Working closely with General Managers, owners and hotel leadership teams, he will focus on operational and commercial performance, guest experience and people development, while supporting the continued growth of Ennismore’s brands across the region. He will report to Sylvain Pasdeloup, Chief Operating Officer of Asia Pacific for Ennismore.
Wyeth brings more than two decades of hospitality experience across Australia and the Pacific. Most recently, he served as Area General Manager for Accor’s South Australia portfolio. His previous roles include Regional General Manager for Western Australia and Regional Director of Sales for Victoria, Tasmania and South Australia, alongside General Manager positions across major Australian hotels. His experience spans multi-property operations, hotel openings and transitions, repositioning programmes, food and beverage, events, as well as working closely with hotel owners and investors. Wyeth is also Co-Founder of Le Mas Barossa, a five-star luxury accommodation property in South Australia’s Barossa Valley and a member of Small Luxury Hotels of the World, giving him additional first-hand experience of hotel ownership and operations.
Building momentum across the Pacific
Wyeth’s appointment is the first of several hires planned as Ennismore continues to invest in its Pacific leadership team. He joins at a period of significant expansion for the group in the region.
Following recent openings in Australia, including Mondrian Gold Coast, 25hours Hotel The Olympia Sydney, Hyde Melbourne Place and Hyde Perth, Ennismore is continuing to expand both its lifestyle and resort brands across the Pacific and wider region. Forthcoming developments include Hyde Bali Seminyak, The Hoxton Melbourne, and a new 25hours Hotel in Bangkok.
Ennismore currently has 30 hotels in the pipeline across Asia Pacific, reflecting the strong momentum of its regional growth strategy and its ambition to establish a significant long-term presence across key gateway cities and leisure destinations. At the heart of this growth is Ennismore’s distinctive lifestyle proposition, combining hotels with destination-led restaurants and bars to create places designed for guests and locals alike. This integrated approach allows Ennismore to bring a differentiated hospitality offer to the region, blending strong global brands with locally relevant experiences, culture and social spaces.
Ennismore’s wider Asia Pacific leadership presence has continued to grow over the last year, with dedicated senior leaders in market across multiple disciplines including operations, culinary, development, people and culture, sales, revenue and distribution, digital marketing, and design and technical services.
Sylvain Pasdeloup, Chief Operating Officer of Asia Pacific at Ennismore, said: “The Pacific is a key growth region for Ennismore. We see significant opportunities to expand our lifestyle brands across major gateway cities and leisure destinations, while bringing a genuinely differentiated proposition to the market through our integrated approach to hotels, restaurants and bars. As our pipeline continues to grow, having experienced leaders close to our hotels, teams and partners is essential to delivering that ambition. I am very pleased to welcome Llewellyn to Ennismore. His appointment is the first of several we plan to make in the Pacific, and it further strengthens our operational leadership across the region. He brings extensive experience of the Australian hospitality market, a strong understanding of hotel operations and owner relationships, and a very hands-on and entrepreneurial leadership style.”
