ExecSpace appoints new managing director

Boutique venue-finding agency ExecSpace, based in Edinburgh and London, has welcomed Lucy McNicoll as its new managing director.

Bringing over 30 years of experience in the hospitality sector, Lucy steps into the role with a strong background in operational and sales leadership across the UK and Europe.

She will focus on enhancing client service, strengthening team collaboration and introducing new strategies for growth. 

Lucy’s appointment marks the next step in ExecSpace’s mission to deliver tailored venue solutions across the professional services and public sectors.

She said: “Emma has built something really special with a business that punches above its weight in true ‘partnership value’ to clients, which says a lot at a time when so many businesses are moving to more transactional models.

“I’m looking forward to working closely with our clients and partners supporting them to source exceptional venues whilst optimising performance and nurturing the great culture that already exists.”

Emma Little, owner and founder of ExecSpace, added: “I’ve known Lucy for 17 years and have always admired her approach and professionalism in business. 

“I was looking for a strong and commercial senior leader that I knew would nurture and develop our talented team and help them fulfil their potential.

“Lucy is an incredible leader, with a proven track record and values that align with my own, and someone I very much trust to take the helm of ExecSpace and lead our business to the next level. 

“I’m super excited to hand over the reins and watch our business grow from strength to strength whilst seeing Lucy and the team thoroughly enjoy this exciting new journey.”
