TTC Tour Brands has appointed Paula Bottle and Karen Zweck as area sales managers, in newly created roles that are based in the southeast.
The umbrella brand for Luxury Gold, Insight Vacations, Trafalgar, Costsaver, and Contiki said they bring “valuable experience”, having both worked at James Villas Holidays, and more recently easyJet Holidays.
Their focus will be on establishing and maintaining relationships with agent partners, conducting training sessions and keeping agents updated to help drive bookings.
Kelly Walker, TTC Tour Brands sales director for UK, Europe & Ireland, said: “As trade sales continue to grow, and demand for touring rises, it made complete sense for us to bolster the team, and we see both Paula and Karen as fantastic additions.
“Sales are currently up over 20% year-on-year across the TTC Tour Brands, including our new Trafalgar River Cruises.
“We’re also seeing more and more new-to-TTC agents make bookings, which is fantastic to see, and further demonstrates the need to strengthen our sales team.”
The TTC Tour Brands sales team is led by Kelly Walker and national account manager Polly Poulton, and is now made up of six area sales managers, including one Contiki business development manager.
