Peter Ducker FIH Chief Executive to leave the Institute of Hospitality

Today, Peter Ducker FIH, Chief Executive of the Institute of Hospitality has decided to announce he is to step down from his role to return to his consulting roots.

Peter has spent the last 8 years at the helm of the Institute driving forward impressive results and building the institute into the professional body for hospitality that we see today.

Kellie Rixon MBE FIH, Chair of the Institute Supervisory Board said “Under Peter’s leadership the IoH has built a strong reputation for providing its Members with fantastic opportunities for lifelong learning. He leaves us in the summer with our thanks and gratitude for being instrumental in creating a strong platform from which the IoH can continue to grow and support its membership. Peter will remain in post until early April when he will move into his consultancy role. The institute has retained Peter’s expertise to help us deliver our commitment to chartered status and support the new Chief Executive until June 2021”.

Peter said: “It has been an honour to lead the institute through a period of regeneration during which we have restored the organisation’s finances, built its membership and developed new initiatives that greatly increase its value to the hospitality industry. I am particularly proud of the mentoring scheme, our embracing of technology to revolutionise the way we deliver much of our professional development and the competitions that we run.”
