Christoph Mares has been appointed Chief Executive Officer (CEO) at Boutique Group
Boutique Group is pleased to announce a leadership succession that will position the company for continued success in the years to come through the appointment of new Chief Executive Officer Christoph Mares.
Building on the strong foundation laid by the group's former CEO, Mark De Cocinis, Mares will be instrumental in driving Boutique Group towards its goal of introducing Saudi hospitality and culture to the world through its portfolio of iconic palaces, starting with the opening of its first hotel, The Red Palace in April 2026.
Boutique Group is confident in a seamless leadership transition as it welcomed Mares in January 2025. Mares comes with a wealth of experience, having previously held the position of Chief Operating Officer at Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group, where he has spent the majority of his career. With over 25 years' experience, Mares was also the COO for Emaar Hospitality Group LLC.
Boutique Group is excited about the opportunities that will arise through a fresh perspective, in alignment with the company's growth.
