Ski Club of Great Britain appoints CEO

Tuesday, 23 Jul, 2019 0

The Ski Club of Great Britain Council has promoted Ian Holt to the role of CEO.

He has been a Ski Club Council member for seven years, the last two as treasurer/vice-chairman and then interim CEO.

Darren Neylon resigned as CEO earlier this year and left in May to take up a position elsewhere.

The appointment comes after an extensive and robust three-month recruitment and selection process, led by Warren Partners, executive search consultants for the Ski Club, which attracted over 100 applications.

"I am very excited at the prospect of becoming CEO having served on an interim basis for the past couple of months. I’ve much enjoyed my time as a Council member and as Treasurer but the chance to take responsibility for developing the next stage of the Club’s future was too great an opportunity to pass," said Holt.

"Bringing finance, insurance and e-commerce experience and having served on committees of various clubs and organisations, I fully understand the wonderful, unique nature we have in the Club. I am very keen that we continue to grow and flourish, to provide the wonderful club experience to more and more skiers and boarders, continually improving our membership package as well as our holiday and travel experiences."
