Following a rigorous procedure, she was chosen to take over at a key moment, ten months before the opening of the new Barryland Theme Park. Mélanie Glassey-Roth has a wealth of professional experience, having worked in a number of prestigious hotels in French-speaking Switzerland. She is a HES business economist in the hotel and hospitality professions, with a Bachelor of Science from the École hôtelière de Lausanne. Mélanie Glassey-Roth’s application stood out in particular for her hospitality and team management skills. Her personal, social and managerial skills are all qualities that she will put at the service of the Barry Foundation and the new park. Jean-Maurice Tornay, President of the Barry Foundation and Chairman of the Barryland Theme Park Steering Committee, is delighted with the appointment of this Valais native and looks forward to working with her in the future.
