She joins Supercity from her previous role as sales director at The Apartment Network where she was responsible for account management alongside new business sales. Previously Devaney spent 14 years with InterContinental Hotels Group (IHG), with eight years as the key account manager for extended stay sales, focused on growing the brand awareness of the Staybridge Suites brand in the EMEA region. She joins as the business prepares to grow its portfolio to six properties in the next year, with new openings in London, Brighton and Manchester.

Devaney said: "I'm delighted to join the Supercity team at an exciting point in their expansion and look forward to growing this amazing brand in the new locations. The independent boutique feel of the apartments and amazing service from all of the team make me confident that Supercity will be regarded as one of the top providers in all of their new locations."

"I'm delighted that Liz Devaney will be joining us in a year that will see us open three Supercity Aparthotels. Liz will be crucial in providing the pre-opening sales support which will help to position these properties in their respective markets. Liz also brings to the team a wealth of knowledge in new openings, which will assist us in identifying further locations to support our growth ambitions," said  Dean Madge, managing director of Supercity Aparthotels.
