At Consultiv Utilities, we’re proud to announce that we have strengthened our partnership with the Club Management Association of Europe (CMAE) by becoming a Premier Partner, following an incredibly successful first year of collaboration.
Since joining the CMAE community as a Corporate Partner, we’ve had the privilege of supporting club managers across Europe through a range of educational events, both in the UK and online. Our team has enjoyed sharing industry expertise, building meaningful relationships, and engaging with professionals who are committed to driving excellence within the club management sector.
Our new Premier Partnership marks an exciting milestone in our ongoing commitment to supporting the professional development of club managers and investing in the future of the industry.
As part of this enhanced partnership, we’re delighted to become the sponsor of the CMAE European Conference Gala Dinner, taking place in St Andrews in October 2026. This flagship event brings together club management professionals from across Europe to celebrate achievement, share knowledge, and strengthen industry connections.
We’re also pleased to be extending our support to the European Club Education Foundation (ECEF) through a dedicated bursary. By helping aspiring and emerging club management professionals access valuable educational opportunities, we’re investing in the next generation of leaders who will shape the future of the industry.
At Consultiv Utilities, we believe strong partnerships create lasting value. Our continued collaboration with CMAE reflects our shared commitment to education, professional development, and supporting clubs in achieving operational excellence. We look forward to building on the success of our first year together and continuing to contribute to the growth of the club management community across Europe.
Craig Cotterill, Commercial Director at CMAE, said:
“Consultiv Utilities have been an outstanding corporate partner over the past 12 months, consistently demonstrating their commitment to strengthening club education across our network. Their team has been ever-present at CMAE events throughout the UK and online, contributing insight, energy and genuine support for the professional development of club managers.
We are delighted that, following a highly successful first year, Consultiv are deepening their involvement by becoming a Premier Partner of the Association. This enhanced agreement will also see them take on the role of sponsor for the CMAE European Conference Gala Dinner in St Andrews in October 2026, as well as providing additional support to the ECEF through a dedicated bursary that will directly benefit future club leaders.
This expanded partnership reflects the strength of our collaboration to date and opens the door to even greater impact in the years ahead. We look forward to continuing our work together to elevate education, opportunity and excellence across the club management profession.”
Consultiv Utilities Business Development Manager, Paul Davidson, said:
“Our first year working with CMAE has exceeded all expectations. We’ve had the opportunity to engage and support passionate club management professionals across Europe and have seen first-hand the incredible work CMAE does to raise standards through education and professional development. Becoming a Premier Partner is a natural next step for us and reflects our commitment to supporting the industry for the long term. We’re especially proud to sponsor the European Conference Gala Dinner and to contribute to the ECEF bursary, helping invest in the future leaders of club management. We look forward to continuing to work alongside CMAE to deliver meaningful value to its members and the clubs they serve.”
