BMA House has announced two management changes - Hannah Robinson is their new venue manager and Sasha Dearden has been promoted to venue sales manager.
Robinson, who has been with BMA House for more than five years, has been appointed to lead the venue’s sales and operations teams as venue manager. She has drawn on her participation in the BMA mentorship programme and is included in the MIA List 2023 as well as being a frequent speaker at industry events representing BMA House.
Simon Kelly, who heads up the venues and estates team at the BMA said, “Hannah has led significant projects, including the implementation of a new CRM system and an enhanced social media presence. Her efforts have contributed to the venue achieving challenging revenue targets in a difficult market. Her ongoing leadership will ensure that we continue to position BMA House as a leading venue for large-scale events with a diverse clientele.”
Commenting on the new role, Robinson said: “I am looking forward to the challenges ahead, my journey to here has been incredibly rewarding, and I look forward to leading our team with compassion, integrity, and a focus on inclusion. Together, we will continue to deliver exceptional experiences for our clients and uphold the high standards that BMA House is known for."
