Rosewood Hotel Group has appointed a new chief operating officer (COO) and a vice president of operations (EMEAC) to its corporate executive team. Anthony Ingham, the group’s new COO, will begin his term on 1 September, 2025, reporting directly to Sonia Cheng, the group’s CEO.
Ingham brings decades of experience to his new role and will be “instrumental” in shaping the group’s operations and strategy going forward.
He will also be responsible for enhancing the guest experience and driving operational and commercial success across all the group’s properties while leading the global teams across operations, commercial, CRM, retail, wellness, digital and e-commerce.
A “seasoned veteran” of the luxury and lifestyle hospitality sectors at groups including InterContinental, Starwood and Marriott International, Ingham has “extensive experience” in leading large global portfolios of luxury hotels, specialising in brand strategy, experience design, operational transformation and commercial performance.
He was responsible for spearheading the holistic brand transformation of W Hotels following the acquisition by Marriott International and has a decade of experience in shaping the brand proposition, experience and marketing for over 120 Luxury Collection Hotels globally.
Meanwhile, Rosewood is also welcoming Luca Finardi as vice president, operations, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Caribbean Atlantic (EMEAC), on 1 June, 2025.
With over 20 years of experience in luxury hospitality, Finardi spent the past decade establishing Mandarin Oriental’s Italian portfolio and was most recently general manager of Mandarin Oriental Paris and area vice president, operations for France, Italy and Czech Republic.
He will report to Ingham and partner closely with managing directors of Rosewood’s properties and key internal stakeholders to oversee the operational strategies of the group’s portfolio and sustain its quality growth in the EMEAC region.
He will also play a pivotal role in identifying opportunities for optimisation and developing best practices as the group continues to expand its global footprint.
Ingham said: “I am thrilled to be joining the Rosewood team at a pivotal moment in the group’s substantial growth phase, as it develops one of the most robust luxury pipelines in the industry. It’s an exciting opportunity to contribute further to the extraordinary work that has been done to date to position Rosewood as one of the most innovative and creative brands in the luxury lifestyle space.”
Finardi added: “I am honored to join Rosewood and look forward to contributing to the Group’s success by embracing its vision and values as it pursues its quality growth strategy. This is a definitive moment for the group, and it is a privilege to be part of the team, shaping its operational ethos and bringing positive impact in our communities.”
