Muhammed — Financial Controller
✉ muhammed@criterionhospitality.com
With hands-on experience supporting The Hoxton's UK and European lifestyle rollout, this candidate brings exactly the portfolio-growth finance rigour that Criterion Hospitality needs as it scales its own London-focused lifestyle estate beyond the stage where a Financial Controller alone can carry the load.
Day 0 email · Lifestyle hotel finance, UK & European rollout background – worth 5 minutes?
Hi Muhammed,
I wanted to put someone specific on your radar rather than send a speculative note.
We are currently working with an Assistant Finance Director from Ennismore, where they spent 12 years supporting The Hoxton's UK and European lifestyle rollout. That means hands-on experience of the finance infrastructure required to scale a lifestyle estate, not just run one, including multi-property reporting, owner-pack discipline and the USALI rigour that comes with operating across different jurisdictions.
The reason I am reaching out to Criterion specifically is that as your London lifestyle portfolio grows, the Financial Controller position increasingly carries a load that benefits from a senior finance partner sitting alongside it. This candidate is available on an eight-week notice and is looking for exactly that kind of growth-stage environment.
Would it be worth a brief call to explore whether the timing makes sense?
Kind regards,
Dan
