OUR PEOPLE

Jasminder Singh OBE, Chairman & CEO

Jasminder Singh's hospitality career started in 1977 with the purchase of Edwardian Hotels London’s first hotel, The Vanderbilt, in South Kensington. Since then, Jasminder grew the portfolio into a collection of 13 hotels and numerous restaurants and bars across London and Manchester. The portfolio now encompasses three premium five-star hotels: The Londoner, The May Fair, and The Edwardian Manchester. 

By creating an environment with a shared mission and values, Jasminder inspires and motivates his employees. This family ethos and collective responsibility creates a unified culture, where all employees are advised on the difference they can make to the running of the business. 

Jasminder has been a driving force within the hospitality sector for more than 45 years. His outstanding contribution to the hotel industry has been recognised through a series of accolades; he was awarded an OBE in 2007 and a Doctorate from the University of Stirling in 2008.
