Another appointment at JG Travel Group
JG Travel Group has made another appointment to its recently acquired National Holidays brand, bringing in Chris Allen as product manager.
Allen, who worked for Travelstyle before it was acquired by National Holidays in 2016, will focus on short breaks, sporting breaks, family and tribute product development and delivery.
Paul Mason, Director of Product and Operations at JG Travel Group, said: "The appointment of Chris brings a wealth of senior level experience in sports and family short breaks.
"We will now be able to build an incredible portfolio of breaks and events for our broad customer base across our brands."
Allen’s appointment follows that of Claire Dutton as Trade Sales Manager and Julie Wilson as Groups Manager.
Chris Allen said "This is a great opportunity to join a growing travel business and to use my experience to broaden the range of short breaks. The selection of new tours and events that we will continuously build will give travel agents a great offering for their customers."
JG Travel Group acquired National Holidays in July following the collapse of National’s parent company, Specialist Leisure Group.
