Hurtigruten appoints new vice president global sales
Cruise firm Hurtigruten has appointed Magnus Wrahme as its new senior vice president global sales.
Wrahme had previously held a number of senior managment positions with Royal Caribbean Cruises, most recently being vice president International.
Over the past year, he has run his own consultancy business, assisting commercial enterprises and cruise companies with business development and market entry services.
Wrahme took up his new position on May 2 and will be dividing his time between Tromsø and Oslo, as well as following up on all Hurtigruten’s global operations.
"We’re extremely pleased to have Wrahme on our team," said CEO Daniel Skjeldam.
"His extensive experience from over 13 years in the international cruise industry and many years in other areas of tourism will be of great benefit to us in the future.
"International competition is tough and his global experience in this market, coupled with his broad network of contacts, will help put Hurtigruten even more firmly on the map."
