Red Robin Gourmet Burgers announced it has appointed Allison Page to its Board of Directors, effective immediately.

Page currently serves as the co-founder and president at SevenRooms, a data-driven operations, marketing and guest engagement platform that has successfully enabled restaurant and hospitality operators to deliver exceptional guest experiences, streamline operations and drive repeat visits with a fully integrated approach to relationship management. Since SevenRooms’ inception in 2011, Page has led the company’s strategic vision, product strategy and user-experience design.

“Allison is an accomplished, forward-thinking executive with a deep understanding of technology’s potential to positively impact the hospitality industry,” says David A. Pace, Red Robin’s Board Chair. “She brings a unique consumer lens to revolutionizing the restaurant guest experience. The Board and management team look forward to benefiting from Allison’s expertise as we continue to execute our strategic plan, accelerate Red Robin’s turnaround and transform the business to create significant long-term value for our shareholders.”

Page says, “I am honored to join Red Robin’s Board and look forward to working with my fellow directors and the Company’s management team to realize the full potential of the iconic Red Robin brand, cultivate meaningful relationships with guests and deliver exceptional dining experiences.”

In the last six months, the company has added four new independent Directors to its Board. The appointment of Page will expand the Red Robin Board to ten Directors, nine of whom are independent. As previously announced, Director Stuart Oran has decided not to stand for re-election at the 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Following Oran’s retirement from the Board, the Company expects that the Board size will be reduced again to nine members.
