The Institute of Travel & Meetings UK & Ireland is to recruit a head of sustainability.
The role will support the expansion of ICARUS sustainability programme across Europe as part of the organisation’s appointment to manage NBTA Europe.
The role will support the ICARUS chairman, Mark Avery, in leading the ICARUS advisory group and supplier committee to widen the project across Europe and to provide more in depth coverage of all three CSR areas, rather than the existing focus on environment.
The new appointment will also revise the supplier award and accreditation process to align it with a more European and potentially global project expansion.
Avery said: “This is a key role for ICARUS, ITM and NBTA Europe.
“The right person will allow ICARUS to flourish to its true potential and reap all the rewards of having led the existing team to that point.
“It is a great opportunity for any individual passionate about corporate responsibility in our sector.”
The association said it is inviting all interested parties to submit proposals via a formal RFP process to ensure that the decision process remains open and impartial and to encourage potential contractors it may not yet have considered.
ITM is asking for parties to register their interest as soon as possible with Paul Tilstone, ITM CEO and managing director of NBTA Europe.
The response deadline to the RFP is scheduled for February 12. Those contacting [email protected] will receive the full RFP on or after January 22.
