Endacott set for return?

FORMER MyTravel UK deputy chief operating officer Steve Endacott plans to buy a small to medium-sized tour operator following his departure from the company.

Endacott left the troubled firm last month after a management restructure. He has vowed not to rush back into the industry but intends to raise finances to buy a tour operator, although he would not give details on the type of operation he wants to buy.

He admitted he would like to start a company from scratch but instead plans to “mould an existing company into the mechanism I want it to be”.

Endacott refused to rule out a return to corporate life but said it was “unlikely”. “I want to make sure it is the right move,” he said.
