Iglu.com managing director Simone Clark has been promoted to senior vice president – global supply as the company looks to expand its cruise business.
The company said that in the new role Clark would lead Iglu’s expansion into overseas markets as well as continuing to build on the business’ important relationships with cruise lines in the UK.

"I am in no doubt that this will prove invaluable for our future development."
Clark added, "After 12 years at Iglu, I’m delighted to take on this new role, which focusses solely on building on our strong relationships with our cruise line partners and other key suppliers.
