Suzanne Baker joins Market Taverns board

Suzanne Baker has been appointed non-executive director of London pub operator Market Taverns. 

Baker (pictured) was appointed to her first board position at JD Wetherspoon at age 33. Following 13 years growing the brand, she joined Stonegate Group as commercial director, overseeing procurement and business strategy across multi-million-pound contracts. 

During those years, Stonegate grew from 180 pubs to the biggest pub company in the UK, operating 4,500 businesses. 

"We are absolutely delighted to have Suzanne on board," says Rolf Munding, owner of Market Taverns, which operates 14 pubs in London. "Her career achievements speak volumes and together with her industry knowledge and strategic vision we are confident Suzanne will help put us firmly on the map as we continue to grow the business."

Among other pubs, Market Taverns operates Lady Ottoline in Bloomsbury; Chelsea’s Lots Road; and the latest addition to the portfolio, The Spencer Arms on Putney Common.
