Oakman Inns has recruited Jonathan Taylor from Peach Pubs for a new role aimed at managing a cluster of sites and training staff for promotion, M&C Report has learnt.
Taylor, who has been with Peach Pubs since 2009 and is currently general manager of The Embankment Hotel in Bedford, will look after the company’s pubs in Milton Keynes.
Oakman’s operations director Alex Ford told M&C Report that Taylor was recruited because he is “an Oakman person”.
He said: “Jonathan is full of enthusiasm and his attitude is fantastic. He’s done a great job at Peach and we’re very lucky to have him.
“As we expand we want to make sure that we are bringing people through the ranks and a big part of what Jonathan will be doing is bringing on assistant managers to managers and ensuring we are retaining talent.”
