Speaking about the changes, the Institute’s CEO, Robert Richardson FIH MI, said: “Working with the indomitable Catherine Chetwynd has been one of the greatest joys of my time at the IoH. She has taught me so much, and when it comes to signing off on her final magazine, I think I will have something in my eye! The successful growth of our magazine is in no small part thanks to Catherine’s professionalism, dedication and editorial expertise, and on behalf of the Institute, I wish her every happiness for the future!

As we look ahead, I am over the moon to welcome Katherine Price MIH to the role of Editor of the Institute of Hospitality Magazine.

Having had the privilege of working with Katherine on other projects at the IoH, I am confident she will build on the magazine’s success and continue to provide engaging and relevant content for our members and wider profession.

As she prepares to step down from the role, Catherine Chetwynd MIH said: “Editing the Institute’s Magazine has been rewarding and stimulating. I have thoroughly enjoyed working with the Institute team and with so many talented and passionate people from across the hospitality profession. It has been a privilege to help tell their stories and support the magazine’s development over the past six years. I leave knowing the publication is in excellent hands and wish Katherine every success in the role.”
