Brooke Kenyon appointed as Vice President of Guernsey Chamber

Orchard's Co-Owner and Managing Director, Brooke Kenyon, has been appointed as Vice President of The Guernsey Chamber of Commerce alongside new President, Stephen Rouxel. Both leaders bring a wealth of business experience and a shared vision for the future of Chamber and the broader business community.

Executive Director of Guernsey Chamber, Alice Gill, said:

Stephen and Brooke are the perfect duo to drive Chamber forward. Their combined experience in leading financial institutions and growing small businesses, plus their connections and insights are ideal to lead Chamber into the future.

Brooke, the powerhouse behind our PR-led communications agency, has a career steeped in entrepreneurial environments and representing businesses both large and small. She is passionate about creating the right conditions for growth and ensuring everyone has the opportunity to succeed.

Both leaders are dedicated to advancing Chamber’s mission with a strategic focus on “People and Planet.” Chamber has recently included provisions in its Memorandum that embed a commitment to this, inspired by B-Corp requirements.

Brooke emphasised:

As a working mum, I see a lot of room for improvement in making the workplace more accommodating for working parents. Our island community is packed full of talent, and over the next few years we can make significant strides in this area.

On the environmental front, the new leadership team is committed to sustainability. Brooke has always focused on people and the planet in her communications work, which she plans to continue in her new role. Stephen is committed to making this a key pillar of his presidency.

Orchard is proud to be a Chamber member and to support its mission to help industries identify both opportunities and challenges in transitioning to net-zero, and to work with them to navigate these changes.

Stephen and Brooke's combined expertise and dedication promise to bring fresh perspectives and vigorous action to Chamber’s initiatives.
