Springboard is delighted to announce that UK Hospitality CEO, Kate Nicholls, has joined its board of trustees.

Kate has worked closely with Springboard for a number of years, with UK Hospitality and Springboard sharing many common goals around promoting careers in hospitality and attracting talent to it.

Kate said: “I am delighted to be joining Springboard as a trustee. With the hospitality sector facing acute labour and skills shortages, Springboard’s work to provide careers advice and support to young people, supported pathways into employment and to boost training and professional development through their range of programmes has never been more vital.

“Becoming a trustee means I can help to champion, promote and shape that work going forward to give more people the opportunity to experience what a career in hospitality can do for them.”

Springboard chairman Alastair Storey said: “Kate is one of hospitality’s most influential figures and played an enormously important role supporting the industry through Brexit, Covid and now the current staffing and cost challenges.

“The trustees are delighted to welcome her to the board to support Springboard’s mission to futureproof the talent pipeline for hospitality, attract new talent and showcase the brilliant opportunities a career in hospitality offer.”
