Lee Robinson-Walton

Business Development Manager

‘I have spent 12 years as a Business Development Manager with Stonegate Group, formerly Enterprise Inns, building strong leased and tenanted experience before joining Greene King in 2026. Before becoming a BDM, I worked across the hospitality industry managing pubs, nightclubs and entertainment venues, which gave me a solid operational background and a real understanding of the trade. To me, a great partner is someone who is commercially driven, people-focused and hands-on, with the ability to build local relationships, maintain high standards and adapt to customer needs. I like to work with my partners and franchisees in a collaborative way, building strong relationships through honesty, transparency and support to help them grow successful businesses. What I love most about pubs is the role they play in bringing people together and being at the heart of their communities.’
