Hotel manager jailed for £350,000 false invoice scam
A hotel manager who stole more than £350,000 from his workplace through a false invoice scam has been jailed.
Eamonn Canavan, 47, admitted fraud by abuse of position part way through his trial at Guildford Crown Court in January.
He was sentenced to three years and four months in prison at the same court on March 10 for the offences committed at a hotel in Charlwood, near Gatwick Airport.
Canavan, of the Bryn Howell Hotel and Restaurant in Llangollen, North Wales, created invoices from fictitious staffing agencies which purported to supply staff to the hotel, before he pocketed the money.
