Ex-Royal Caribbean sales director joins Royal Mail

Former Royal Caribbean UK, Ireland and Spain sales director Stuart Byron has joined Royal Mail.

The line confirmed in December that he was to take up a new role outside the travel industry after six years with the business.

Byron joined the line as director of insights in 2018 and took on the sales role in January 2020.

He has now revealed his new job at Royal Mail Relay.

Writing on LinkedIn, Byron said: “I am delighted to share that I’m starting my next adventure as network and strategy director at Royal Mail.

“An iconic UK brand with a 500-year history – and I can’t wait to get going.”

He previously held management and director positions at Johnson & Johnson and PepsiCo.

Byron’s move follows the announcement on Tuesday that Heathrow chief operating officer Emma Gilthorpe had been appointed chief executive of Royal Mail from May 1.
