Riviera Travel CCO leaving
Riviera Travel’s Chief Commercial Officer Jim Forward is set to leave the business.
He is leaving to become Chief Executive of Hoburne Group, a holiday and property development company based in the South West.
"I want to pay tribute to Jim. In his three years with Riviera, he has made a major contribution developing a highly-focussed and effective marketing and commercial approach," said Riviera’s Chief Executive Phil Hullah.
"Whilst we search for a permanent replacement for Jim, ex-Saga Travel CEO Robin Shaw will provide the Riviera team with additional business and commercial support."
Jim Forward said: "I am sorry to be leaving Riviera. Moving on to Hoburne Group will provide me with a new and different challenge, but I very much enjoyed my time at Riviera, the business has a very bright future, and I learned a great deal working with Phil and the team."
