Jill Gardner to leave Hays Travel

Hays Travel commercial director Jill Gardner is to leave the company after 12 years.


The news of Gardner’s departure coincides with the appointment of a new finance director, Scott Hopkinson, who started with the company this week.


Hopkinson joins from Eaga PLC, a supplier of heating and renewable energy, where he was divisional finance director.


Before that, he was finance director of Duncan Bannatyne’s Bannatyne Group where he oversaw the £90 million acquisition of the Livingwell chain of health clubs from the Hilton.


Finance and operations director Sue Jarvis will take on the additional role of commercial director and group sales manager Linda Pyle will head up the Independence Group.
