Meet Our New Director of Sales

Laura Mackie is the new Director of Sales at Manchester Hall, and she brings something special to the role: a genuine love for the events industry combined with the strategic business mind needed to drive real growth.

Coming from her longstanding role at the Midland Hotel, Laura has spent years immersed in Manchester's vibrant events landscape. She knows this city—its culture, its personalities, its standards. More importantly, she knows what makes an event truly memorable. Whether it's the perfect corporate conference, an elegant wedding reception, or a milestone celebration, Laura understands that venues aren't just buildings; they're the stage upon which clients' most important moments come to life.

What makes Laura exceptional is her approach to client engagement. She doesn't operate from a standard playbook. Instead, she builds genuine relationships, asks the right questions, and finds creative ways to exceed expectations. Her colleagues in Manchester's events sector know her as someone who is generous with her knowledge, passionate about collaboration, and genuinely invested in her clients' success.

In her new position, Laura will champion Manchester Hall's reputation as one of the city's premier destinations for corporate events, weddings, and celebrations. She's here to build on the venue's strengths, expand its reach into new markets, and ensure that every client—whether they're planning their dream wedding or a critical corporate gathering—feels valued, heard, and excited about choosing Manchester Hall.

With Laura at the helm of our sales team, we're confident that Manchester Hall will continue to attract the city's most discerning event planners and corporate buyers. Her combination of industry expertise, strategic thinking, and authentic passion for delivering outstanding experiences makes her the ideal leader to take our reputation to the next level.
