The former President of Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts and later chaired DuPont Registry Group, a high-end automotive marketplace, is now leading Auberge Resorts Collection, succeeding Craig Reid as president and CEO of the group.
Graduated from EHL with a Bachelor degree in Hospitality Administration/Management, Christian Clerc earned his stripes at Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts by leading the group during 22 years. He was then responsible for leading all aspects of the company’s hotel and residential business globally across 47 countries.
But before assuming responsibility for global operations at Four Seasons, he was president, EMEA, from 2014 until 2016, overseeing the company’s operations in the region. Previously, he led the Hotel George V in Paris with regional responsibility for Southern Europe and held various GM and RVP positions throughout the Americas prior to that.
Christian is a dynamic and admired leader in the hospitality industry. His proven approach to luxury customer experiences synergizes perfectly with our vision for Auberge, as we continue to build our highly sought after brand. He has a unique perspective on what a luxury hospitality brand should be and deep expertise in delivering curated experiences at one-of-a-kind properties that exceed the expectations of the world’s most discerning travelers.
