Josh Lewis has left Youtravel to become new head of partnerships at trade support firm Galaxi.
He becomes the latest departure from the bed bank, which has cancelled all bookings with dates from November 1 as it awaits further information on its future after the collapse of its German parent FTI Touristik in June.
Corendon Airlines last week confirmed that Matthew Carpenter had left Youtravel after nine years to become its UK country manager.
Galaxi co-founder Phil Turner said: “We are delighted that Josh has chosen to make Galaxi his next career move. Having worked with Josh in previous roles, we know the immense value he brings to the table.
“His appointment will be a huge asset as we continue to grow our business, benefiting both our existing partners and future collaborations.
“Josh will not only oversee our current partner relationships but will also play a key role in onboarding new partners.
“Additionally, he will be instrumental in organising events for our hotel and tourism board partners, offering more product training opportunities and incentives to travel agents – with whom he has built a strong rapport, which will only continue to grow.”
Lewis added: “Galaxi already represents some fantastic product, and I’m looking forward to contributing to the company’s growth.
“I’m particularly excited about the chance to strengthen our relationships and onboard some new partners and to deliver even more exciting events and various marketing solutions over the next 12 months.”
