Andrew Gibson, group director of spa at Mandarin Oriental Hotels Group (MOHG), is to leave the company to take up the role of vice president for spa and wellness at Fairmont Raffles Hotels International (FRHI).
Gibson, who’s headed up spas for the Asian-based group for nearly seven years, oversaw operations of 24 MOHG spas around the world. The most recent opening was the 2,415sq m (26,000sq ft) spa at Mandarin Oriental Pudong in Shanghai.
At FRHI he’ll replace Anne McCall Wilson and take charge of all spas for the luxury hotel management company, which operates more than 105 hotels globally under the Fairmont, Raffles and Swissôtel brands. Gibson will take up the post in January and told Spa Business that he’s “thoroughly looking forward” to the new opportunity.
Notable hotels in the group include Raffles Singapore, Swissôtel The Bosphorus, The Fairmont San Francisco and London’s The Savoy.
Gibson, who is a founding board member of the Global Spa and Wellness Summit and the co-chair for the 2013 event, has worked in the spa industry for more than 25 years. Prior to joining MOHG, he was a partner in spa consultancy Raison d’Etre and before that he was the managing director of Six Senses Spas (see Spa Business, issue 1 2004, p20).
