Hi, I'm Angela Clarke

In my 35 years within the hotel industry, I can truthfully say that I have not had the pleasure of working with anyone who has been so gifted  with such a combination of creative talents, business acumen and marketing awareness as Angela Clarke. 

In her position as Director of Marketing and Strategic Planning she was responsible for all the forecasting and marketing requirements as well as Public Relations, and was instrumental in conveying all these issues at board meetings to our owning company and our own company, Orient-Express Hotels.

  Angela is multi-talented and highly resourceful, providing not only a strategic approach and strong budgetary control but also excellent creative ability and follow through. She showed remarkable ability during her time in South Africa as Regional Director of Marketing Sales and Public Relations.

Her key skills lie in her analytical ability, her flexibility, her wide knowledge, and her focused and results-oriented approach. She is also an excellent and astute marketer, with an eye for quality and a sound knowledge of marketing principles and brand management.

 Angela Clarke  worked as Marketing and Public Relations Manager for Air France in Sydney during my assignment as General Manager.

During that time, Angela's performance was well above average. She was a hard worker who demonstrated an ability to assume added responsibilities with great originality and effectiveness. 

She  was always a very motivated individual, full  of initiative and creativity. Her interaction with the  staff was also very pleasant.

 I have had the great opportunity of working with Angela at two different companies encompassing both luxury hotels and major international airlines.
Angela’s strategic marketing vision ensured we committed to the right programs for our needs that resulted in long term measurable benefits.
With exceptional analytical capabilities Angela identified focus areas ensuring continued growth as well as sourcing new revenue opportunities in emerging markets.

Our brand awareness prospered under her guidance and our company portfolio flourished and grew whilst at the same time forming strong luxury alliances.

During her employment with Lanson/Pommery Champagne Angela assisted with the in-house promotion of two champagne brands, facing every challenge with energy and enthusiasm, displaying creativity as well as excellent organisational ability.

Her ability to speak and write French fluently also proved invaluable to the company. 

I am pleased to recommend Angela to any future employer as an intelligent, competent and reliable person with an attractive personality and good communication skills.
