Philma Gomes appointed director of sales & marketing, Cape Grace
Cape Grace has appointed Philma Gomes as director of sales & marketing. Gomes will be responsible for all aspects of the hotel's sales and marketing strategy including local and international sales, revenue management, reservations, digital, PR, and brand management.
The independently managed and owned Cape Grace, which was recently voted number 2 of the 25 Best Hotels in the world in the Tripadvisor Traveller's Choice Award, has held pride of place on its own quay in Cape Town's V&A Waterfront for the past 16 years.
"Everything I have achieved in my career thus far has prepared me for this new role, the vision to create a hotel unlike any other. In a world that is increasingly detached and impersonal, the Cape Grace environment is rare with its understated elegance, and a genuine passion to delight, " says Gomes.
As per Sandy Pollard, GM, "Philma's considerable experience and market insights will provide the strategic direction to take Cape Grace into the next exciting phase of our development and we are excited to have her on-board. "
