The Trafford Centre strengthens senior management team with internal appointment of Centre Director and Operations Manager

Zoe Inman has been appointed as Centre Director of The Trafford Centre, following a career spanning nearly two decades at The Trafford Centre in a number of roles and departments, most recently as Operations Manager.

Inman joined the Peel Group in 2002 to head up The Trafford Centre’s leisure and catering division, following a varied background in leisure and hospitality management as a development and general manager across the leisure industry.

She held the position of Operations Manager for The Trafford Centre since 2013, achieving a number of industry awards.

Inman will be supported by the appointment of Tracy Gilchrist as Operations Manager, who brings a wealth of retail operations experience to the role including senior store management at BHS.

Megan Keany, Savills Director, said: “Zoe is a passionate, highly motivated leader and holds excellent relationships with a number of the centre’s key stakeholders throughout the region. Zoe will bring a wealth of ideas to take The Trafford Centre forward into the future, bolstered by Tracy’s outstanding operational skills and those of the wider management team.”

Zoe Inman, Centre Director, added: “The Trafford Centre continues to be one of the UK’s most iconic and much-loved visitor destinations, as well as being responsible for thousands of jobs across the region. The centre has an exciting and ambitious future ahead and I’m incredibly excited to be part of that.”
