Travelscope appoints key account manager for agency partners
Wendy Moore has been appointed key account manager at Travelscope to help develop its retail agency business.
Moore has joined the Gloucester-based travel group specialist to help increase sales through travel agents across the UK.
She has been in the industry since the early 1970s when she joined her family’s travel business, James Travel, which grew to become one of the Midlands’ leading travel agencies. Seven of its outlets were sold to Thomson in 1999.
In the mid 1990s Wendy set up airline consolidation company JTA – Airline Warehouse, which was sold in 2002 with a multi-million pound turnover.
Travelscope head of retail sales Darren Parris said: “Travelscope has only been selling through the retail sector for nine months and we already have over 1,000 travel agents selling our products.”
