The Louise, Baillie Lodges’ Barossa Valley property, has announced luxury tourism industry professional Hannah McGregor as its new General Manager.
Hannah has stepped into the role from her previous position as Assistant General Manager at The Louise, a member of Luxury Lodges of Australia.
She joined the team as Assistant General Manager at The Louise in September 2022 as it reopened following a significant refurbishment shortly after it joined the growing Baillie Lodges collection.
She has achieved what Baillie Lodges said are “outstanding results – including building a local sales and marketing strategy to dovetail with Baillie Lodges broader plan, establishing a network of regional advocates and fostering relationships with the close-knit local community in the Barossa Valley,” the company said in a statement.
McGregor replaces former General Manager, Sonya Smith.
During her career, McGregor has spent time in management roles at the Great Scotland Yard Hotel in the United Kingdom, The Savoy in London, and at The Fairmont Banff Springs in Canada.
“I’m thrilled to be heading up the wonderful team here at The Louise, and I’m looking forward to further developing our partnerships with food, wine and cultural organisations in the Barossa and broader South Australia to offer a rich and rewarding experience for our guests,” McGregor said.
Baillie Lodges Chief Operating Officer Craig Bradbery said the team was delighted to welcome Hannah to the leadership role.
“With her love of travel and esteemed career in luxury resorts and tourism, Hannah is a natural fit for the role of General Manager at The Louise,” Bradbery said.
