QEII Centre CEO Mark Taylor is stepping down after 12 years, it has been announced.
Taylor, who has been at the helm of the Westminster venue since 2013, is stepping down as CEO to
focus on family commitments.
During his tenure, Taylor has overseen a refurbishment programme that has
modernised the venue with annual revenues having increased from £9.6m in
2013/14 to £17.6m in 2023/24.
Reflecting on his
time at the QEII Centre, Taylor said: “Serving as CEO
has been a fantastic and rewarding journey. I am immensely proud to have worked
alongside such a talented team of professional staff and partners, and the
wider events community in London and beyond. I wish them, and the centre,
continued success in the years ahead.”
The Ministry of
Housing, Communities and Local Government also thanked Taylor for his
tenure.
Arrangements for
the appointment of a new chief executive will be announced shortly.
