Alex De Araujo

Business Development Manager

‘What started out as a job behind the bar turned into a love for pubs and hospitality for me. 13 years later I continue to work in pubs as Business Development Manager with experience across Managed and Leased and Tenanted pubs. I believe this has given me a unique understanding of both the operational and strategic sides of running a pub business, which enable me to help the pub franchisees I support to run great pub businesses of their own. For me, working collaboratively with my franchise partners is key as this results in great ideas shared with one another that everyone learns from, creating even better pub businesses together.’
