Intrepid promotes internally as it moves out of Covid-19 hibernation

Joanna Reeve has been promoted by Intrepid as head of industry and tailormade sales for the EMEA region.

She replaces Andrew Turner who left earlier this year.

Reeve has worked at Intrepid for nearly eight years as EMEA tailormade manager and most recently as interim head of industry.

She will be integral to driving new domestic and international sales strategies that support the company’s growth, as it moves from a period of hibernation following the Covid-19 outbreak.

Intrepid includes 25 destination management companies, three tour operator brands and a not-for-profit, The Intrepid Foundation.

Managing director Zina Bencheikh said: “I’m delighted that Joanna will be leading the industry and tailormade sales team in Europe.

“She brings valuable experience, knowledge and insight to the role, and a new approach to leadership and development.

“She is a great asset to the team, and has been integral in working with our industry partners navigating though the Covid-19 crisis.  I am confident Jo will play a key part in supporting the company’s ‘Growing with Purpose’ plan.”

Reeve added: “I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to lead Intrepid’s dynamic industry business development team, particularly at a time when we are reimagining ourselves as a company following Covid-19.

“Never has it been a more important time to drive new and targeted sales strategies that will ensure we work cohesively with our agent partners, who we recognise as playing an invaluable role in the growth of our business.”
