Most recently, Chavy served as CEO of Movenpick Hotels & Resorts where he was able to grow the company’s portfolio more than 40% and revitalize the company by appointing millennial leaders to help guide their teams toward a progressive guest experience. This success follows his other impressive roles as President and CEO of international interior design firm Wilson Associates, a variety of executive positions at the Hilton brand, and General Manager for a number of luxury hotels around the globe.
