As Operations Manager at Punch Pubs & Co, a multi-award-winning pub company with around 1,250 pubs in England, Scotland and Wales, Simon is responsible for looking after the Managed Partnership estate in the North East of England and Scotland, and for all the accommodation businesses nationally. Since joining in 2015, Simon has built up a wealth of experience around running pubs, both with and without rooms, backed up by real hands-on experience as a publican himself. The unique challenges and opportunities of maximising profitability of pub accommodation across the groups managed estate of 39, from Cornwall to Northumberland, mean that no two days are ever the same!
