Liz McGivern
Vice President People & Culture
lmcgivern@rchmail.comHaving worked for Red Carnation Hotels for nearly 20 years, the best feedback for me is when guests remark on the fantastic service they received. Ultimately this is how my department is judged; on our recruitment through to the training we deliver. The most satisfying moments are when I see someone develop and grow within the company or being happy in their role, doing a brilliant job and wishing to stay with the company for many years is important to me.
