Aesthetics has sights set on further Wimbledon glory
ANDY Murray may still be basking in the glory of becoming the first British winner of the men’s title at Wimbledon in 77 years, but one Coventry company is already looking ahead to next year’s championship.
Aesthetics Event Staff Ltd, which is based at Electric Wharf in the city, provided 15 staff at the tournament this year, largely working in the Centre Court and Court One Debentures Club to host guests and members.
The company, which was founded by female entrepreneur Lee Thomas in 1996, has received positive feedback from the All England Lawn Tennis Club and preparations for next year’s event are already underway.
Ms Thomas said: “It is the 12th year we have been involved at Wimbledon and the fifth year we have worked for the All England Lawn Tennis Club.
“Our staff are responsible for hosting and greeting guests and it’s vital that they are friendly and knowledgeable and help to make it an outstanding experience for members.
“Of course, Andy Murray’s success made it an unforgettable year and we were delighted to be part of the championship for such a historic occasion.”
Ms Thomas, who has more than 8,000 staff on her books worldwide servicing a range of industries from football to finance, added: “It’s been a great year of sport already for Aesthetics.
“We’ve worked at the Champions League Final at Wembley, the British Grand Prix at Silverstone and now the Wimbledon Championships.
“The feedback from all three has been fantastic and we are already looking ahead to next year’s Wimbledon so we can put together another great team for the championship.”
