Perrin resigns role as specialist division MD

THOMSON specialist holiday division managing director Andy Perrin has quit saying he no longer wants to work for a large corporation.

He said he was keen to return to a small, privately run organisation where he can influence all aspects of the business.

Perrin, who became MD as part of Charles Gurassa’s management restructure in February, will leave at the end of the year, creating more upheaval within the Kingston based specialist division.

However, he has already taken a back seat and his role has been divided on a temporary basis between Simply and Magic Travel managing director Paul Bradley and the division’s finance director David Rowe.

Perrin stressed his departure was amicable and said he strongly believed in the revised structure and direction the specialist division was heading.
