Carl Traill, formerly of Punch and Marston’s, has become the latest appointment to the new operations team at the Bridgepoint-backed Burger King UK, MCA understands.
Traill was most recently an operations director at Condor Hospitality Consultants and consultant chief executive at Burger King franchisee CPL/Millcliffe Ltd, which operates 45 sites under the brand.
He also previously had stints as a regional operations director at Punch Taverns and as a regional operations manager at Marston’s.
MCA revealed earlier this week, that Burger King UK, which is now the UK master franchisee for the c540-strong chain, had made three appointments to its management team, including a chief financial officer and chief operating officer.
As previously flagged up MCA, Tim Doubleday, formerly of Casual Dining Group, has become the company’s chief financial officer.
At the same time, Richard Dening-Smitherman, formerly chief executive of Nando’s in the UAE, has been appointed the group’s chief operating officer.
Finally, Marc Balding, former property director at Byron and Five Guys, has joined the company as its new development director.
A chief executive is still being sought.
