Travelbag announces more senior appointments
Travelbag has made two more senior appointments as part of a new team working alongside soon-to-join managing director Lesley Rollo.
The long-haul specialist, owned by Dnata Travel Europe, has named Suzanne Harvey as its new head of product.
Harvey, who until recently was head of purchasing and contracting for long haul tailormade brands at Travelopia, brings with her over 15 years of travel industry experience, having started her career at First Choice before moving to Sandals to work as business account manager.
Leading the seven-strong product team, she will report to chief commercial officer B2C long haul, Matt Bell. She’ll work closely with Rollo – who joins the business as new MD after Easter – on the development and delivery of Travelbag’s worldwide product strategy.
Dnata Travel Europe CEO John Bevan said: "We’re looking forward to leveraging Suzanne’s experience. We have big ambitions for Travelbag in this its 40th year, and she’ll be critical in bringing those to life."
Travelbag has also recently appointed Darren Hitchcock, as commercial manager.
Reporting to head of commercial Marco Rocha, he comes to the business with more than 20 years’ experience in product and commercial roles at the likes of Solo’s Holidays, Thomas Cook and Hotels4U.
