From improving operational efficiency and training staff to enhancing the guest experience and shaping long-term strategy, my tailored approach helps you strengthen performance while preserving the character and values that make your venue unique.

MEET STUART EARP

With over 30 years of experience in senior hospitality management, I’ve built my career leading event venues, hotels, pubs, members clubs, and multi-site operations through change, growth, and transformation. I’ve been fortunate to work across some incredible venues — from independent boutique hotels to prestigious members clubs — and I now bring that depth of experience to clients through Stuart Earp Hospitality.

I specialise in helping hospitality businesses increase profitability, streamline operations, comply with all health and safety legislation and deliver exceptional guest experiences. Whether it's turning around underperforming sites, building high-performing teams, or driving commercial strategy, I offer practical, results-driven support tailored to the unique needs of each venue.

Throughout my career, I’ve held leadership roles at well-known establishments such as the Royal Southampton Yacht Club, Red Lion Hotel in Salisbury, Fullers White Buck and Pilgrim Inn, and Devere Royal Bath and Belfry Hotels. In every role, my focus has been the same: to deliver operational excellence, improve margins and compliance and create environments where both teams and guests thrive.

WHAT I CAN DO FOR YOU AND YOUR BUSINESS

At Stuart Earp Hospitality, I offer practical, results-focused support to hospitality businesses looking to improve performance, compliance, profitability, and guest satisfaction. I work closely with owners, managers, and teams to identify where operations can be streamlined, where revenue opportunities are being missed, and how service delivery can be enhanced. Whether it's refining your cost controls, improving team performance, developing a stronger guest experience, or creating a more effective sales and marketing strategy, I bring decades of real-world leadership experience to the table. I understand the daily pressures of running a hospitality venue — from staffing and budgeting to compliance, health and safety, and customer care — and my goal is always to deliver clear, achievable solutions that create measurable impact. Whether you're running a hotel, a members club or  a food & beverage or conference & events venue, I’ll help you take a fresh, informed approach to the challenges you're facing and support you in building a stronger, safer, and more sustainable business.

Testimonials

"Stuart and I have a working relationship going back over 20 years, i worked with him during his time as a food and beverage manager and for him when he was a general manager and have since worked together on many projects. So, when I required additional support within my own business, I didn't hesitate to contact him. Stuart assists us in an event management capacity, enabling us to take on multiple events on the same day to continue the growth of our business. Stuart is trustworthy, professional and reliable but most of all good at what he does and is equally liked by our customers and staff.

We look forward to continued support from Stuart Earp Hospitality in the future and happily recommend him to anyone in need"
