Premier Holidays has appointed Rachel Wood as sales and business development manager, looking after agents in the north of England, Scotland and Northern Ireland.
She is working alongside her counterpart Karen Milward who is looking after agency sales in the south of England.
Wood started her travel career in 2000 as a regional sales manager for P&O Cruises.
She has also been a BDM for the Freedom Travel Group and was most recently regional sales manager for the Northwest & Midlands region at Classic Collection Holidays.
Wood joined on January 2, reporting to sales and marketing director Debbie Goffin.
Goffin said: “We are delighted to have Rachel on board; she comes with a breadth of relevant experience and we are confident she will work extremely well with our agent partners.
“Rachel has been warmly welcomed by the team with her training and handover all under way, and we are ready for the new year as Premier Holidays continues to support travel agents.”
Wood added: “I am so happy I have had the opportunity to join the Premier Holidays team. I can’t wait to reconnect with agent partners in the north and develop valuable relationships with a truly respected brand.”
