Chris Morris, the current managing director B2C division for TUI Travel, is leaving in March.
He is joining Citation, health and safety and employment law compliance specialists, as CEO and will leave TUI on March 18.
Jesper With-Fogstrup, currently TUI B2C operations director, has been appointed to the role of interim managing director with immediate effect.
Morris will remain in the business for the next few weeks to ensure a smooth handover before taking on his new role.
Morris joined LateRooms.com as finance director in 2005 and was then quickly promoted to the role of MD.
He led the expansion of the LateRooms.com brand and has been responsible for the expansion of the B2C Division through the acquisition of sister brands AsiaRooms.com and MalaPronta.com in Brazil.
