InterContinental London Park Lane is delighted to announce the appointment of Velimir Burazor as Business Development Manager – Corporate. Mr. Burazor joins InterContinental London Park Lane from another IHG property, Crowne Plaza Zurich, where he grew from Sales Manager to Assistant Director of Sales in less than three years.  During this period, Velimir oversaw European sales across Corporate, Transient, MICE, Leisure, and Airline.

As part of IHG’s commitment to encourage development, ‘Room to Grow’, Velimir’s on-going success and achievements at Crowne Plaza Zurich have been recognised with his new position at the flagship hotel for InterContinental Hotels & Resorts. In this new role Velimir will be responsible for cultivating relationships with existing UK and Asian Pacific clients and developing new business within the corporate sector.

A true hotelier from the outset, Mr. Burazor gained a Higher Diploma in Hospitality at the prestigious Swiss Hotel Management School Lucerne (SHL). With a decade of experience across food and beverage, management and sales, and with five languages to his credit, Mr. Burazor brings a multi-layered approach to his clients.

‘In 2012, InterContinental London Park Lane was recognised by World Travel Awards as ‘England’s Leading Business Hotel’, said Michael Green, Area Sales Director for London. ‘Velimir brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to maximise these accolades in 2013 and we are thrilled to have him on the team’.
