Matt BarnwellManaging Director
Matt has a long history within the Leisure and Hospitality industry, starting his career as a part time assistant at his local Family Entertainment Centre while completing his Law degree, and progressing over 15 years to senior management positions.
His skillset includes specialisms in operations, systems and process, data analysis and training, however, a career at the sharp end of the UK FEC industry has also given him a solid understanding of all other areas of business management. This range of knowledge, alongside a background in a wide variety of revenue streams – from nightclubs to Soft Play centres, and restaurants to Tenpin Bowling centres – ensures a unique perspective with substantial real-world experience to back it up.
Matt’s background includes time spent within large chains, independent groups and single sites – giving him a broad perspective on the challenges facing operators. Having developed and led teams in many of the UK’s most demanding FEC’s, recent years have seen him establish a consultancy group used by a host of leisure industry operators, assisting with the profitable operation of existing sites and establishing multiple successful start-up businesses.
