Hospitality Consulting Services Backed-up by Proven Results

"In working for and with Greg Sear over the past 16years, I have watched Greg build new successful long-term business for investors, return struggling business to profitable ones and take profitable business to the next level. His vision and ability to create long term functional teams is extraordinary. Long-term planning with sound fiscal management puts Greg Sear and his hospitality group at the top of the list for hospitality consulting services in the Asia Pacific region."

“Greg was the most business savvy CEO I have ever worked for. His understanding of the hotel and hospitality industry were second to none and he has an uncanny ability to turn a hotel around from being a poor performer into a business that makes a healthy return on investment. The commercial skills I learnt from working with Greg, will remain with me for a long time.”

“ Sear Hospitality have provided us, as developers a unique skill set and deep insight into the hotels and hospitality space. This insight has assisted the full pre-development to operations timeline, working closely with us at pre-feasibility stages, design, pre-opening and post-opening. Greg’s operational knowledge and commercial sensibility has given our group the confidence and support to develop and operate our first resort, providing key input along that journey.”

Sear Hospitality was engaged by the Mercure Canberra Belconnen in 2017 to assist management with the development and opening of one of our largest investment projects. With over 40 years of industry experience, Greg Sear has supported our team in all aspects of the hotel evolution from inception to final delivery. With his depth of knowledge, he was able to outline a successful business model for the franchise structure and worked with management to create a detailed implementation plan to guide our decision-making processes. Greg continues to work with the property, assisting the CEO in overseeing the hotel management to achieve financial and operational targets and to ensure we surpass guest expectations.
