TUI names new head of Ireland
TUI has named Simon Eaton as its new head of Ireland following Belinda Vazquez’s promotion to retail director for TUI UK & Ireland.
Eaton is currently commercial director of TUI-owned Crystal Ski Holidays.
He will assume responsibility for the management of the TUI & Crystal Ski business in Ireland on September 1. In the meantime, he will start a transition period with Vazquez.
Eaton joined TUI as a rep 14 years ago and has worked in various roles in France and in commercial roles in the UK.
In his most recent role as commercial director for Crystal Ski Holidays and TUI Lakes & Mountains, Eaton had responsibility for yield, aviation, product, inventory and ecommerce.
"I’m delighted to be appointed as head of Ireland for TUI," he said. "I look forward to getting to know and working with the Irish management team, the rest of the business and the wider travel industry to ensure its continued success into the future."
