Peter is a British businessman who has spent the last forty years developing his own business management skills. In the past twenty years, he has focussed on working with people from across the world who are involved in the Education and Hospitality industry and sharing his love for business, sales, marketing and students.
Peter has worked in Europe, the Far East, the Middle East, Russia, North America and Africa. He has also worked with small businesses in Vietnam on behalf of the British Government.
For close to forty years he has applied his skills working with leading persons in industry achieving objectives far beyond one can imagine. His love for business and his desire to share his experiences are the basis of the group’s range of products. His main role as Director of Hosts International is to support and encourage our network of partners to grow and find innovative ways to approach accommodation and the international student’s needs.
He is an unusual entrepreneur, enjoying statistics but often looking beyond profit margin for satisfaction on what he does and how he runs his business. He likes partnerships that stem from mutual respect and ideally wishes to treat partners as friends. He has applied his sales and statistical analysis skills in helping the business achieve its objectives, often simplifying complex policies and processes to be hands on and approachable to all levels.
For someone who started out as a humble Northerner, he has come more than a long way – chalking up more milestones than he himself can remember. He continues to enjoy the work he does and enjoys the company of the people he works with. He takes a special interest in the next generation, making time for them despite his hectic work schedule. He sees in them as the future, gives importance to their training and mentors them to become leading managers within the industry.
Peter’s interests include classic cars and motorcycles, stamp collecting, flying light aircraft and all things Northern and beautiful! Peter intends to work and never retire! To speak to him, contact peterbrown@hosts-international.com
