Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has opened its first Private Office outside the UK, in Dubai, which is the first among similar facilities planned for luxury hot spots around the world.
Private Office Dubai serves as an extension of The Home of Rolls-Royce at Goodwood offering offers exclusive product previews and detailed commission consultations.
It is home to the first Bespoke Designer and Bespoke Client Experience Manager located permanently outside Goodwood.
Huge progress
"The inauguration of a permanent Private Office located outside Goodwood in Dubai, UAE, signals huge progress for Rolls-Royce. For many years we have been inviting our VIP clients to The Home of Rolls-Royce in Goodwood – and now, following significant demand, we are bringing Goodwood to the world. Not only will we be permanently locating a member of the Rolls-Royce Bespoke Design team and Bespoke Client Experience Manager in this new outpost, but we will also be leveraging the very latest technology to allow our Middle East-based clients to explore our Home in West Sussex remotely and see their own Bespoke Rolls-Royce come to life.
“This is yet another step in the evolution of the marque, rooting itself as a true House of Luxury with effortlessly elevated design services that are on a par with our products. The Private Office will complement and support our regional Dealer Partners by enhancing our clients’ experiences of Rolls-Royce,” said Torsten Müller-Ötvös, Chief Executive Officer, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars
Inspirational market
“The Middle East region has always been an inspirational market for Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, especially when it comes to Bespoke. What we inaugurate today is of great significance as it represents the first Rolls-Royce Private Office outside the UK and further confirmation that Rolls-Royce is a true House of Luxury. Our Private Office Dubai is an extension of The Home of Rolls-Royce at Goodwood in West Sussex, and is the first in a number of similar facilities that will be opened around the world. This is not a dealership; it is a unique experience where clients can bring their ideas to life and explore our Home and our people in real-time, using seamless technology,” said Henrik Wilhelmsmeyer, Director of Sales and Brand, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars.
Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has unveiled a world-first Private Office in Dubai, UAE. This outpost will be an extension of the marque’s world-renowned centre of luxury manufacturing excellence at The Home of Rolls-Royce in Goodwood, West Sussex, England.
The Private Office Dubai is the first in a number of similar facilities that are planned for major luxury capitals of the world over the next few years. These Private Offices will facilitate even closer contact and relationships with global Rolls-Royce clients, further embedding the marque’s reputation as the world’s most client-focused luxury brand.
Unique experience
The new Rolls-Royce Private Office, located in the heart of Dubai in the One Central neighbourhood, is a unique experience for the Middle East region’s most significant clients, offering the flair and expertise of The Home of Rolls-Royce on their doorstep. This is achieved not only with the materials on display and the marque’s renowned hospitality, but also with the first permanent appointment of a Bespoke Lead Designer and Bespoke Client Experience Manager outside Goodwood. Both these crucial positions are filled with people who bring a wealth of Rolls-Royce experience with them.
Bespoke Lead Designer Michelle Lusby arrives in Dubai after eight years with the marque, where she previously worked on a wide variety of exciting and exquisite projects, including the highly Bespoke, one-of-one Phantom Serenity, which captivated the world when its unique appointments and material treatments redefined the luxury of tranquillity. Chris Hardy moves from Goodwood to take up the position of Bespoke Client Experience Manager. Having been with Rolls-Royce for over five years, he brings a true passion for the client to this unique new role, where he will guide visitors through the wonderful experience which awaits them at the Private Office Dubai.
Three key programmes
In response to significant client demand, three key programmes will be the focus of the Private Office: the recently revitalised Rolls-Royce Coachbuild programme, High Bespoke Commissioning, and access to the Private Office Collection of one-of-one masterpiece motor cars. The offerings are part of a complementary strategy, finding the synergy between the rooted and established Global Dealer Partner Network, with the roll-out of Global Private Office outposts in select locations across the world.
