Funway appoints head of sales
Funway Holidays has appointed a head of sales as part of a recruitment drive.
Audrey Brooks-Wiggins joins this week in the new role.
She was previously Thomas Cook head of trade partnerships but left Thomas Cook in June.
Her appointment comes after Funway sales director Amanda Darrington left earlier this year to join Royal Caribbean as sales director for UK and Ireland.
Meanwhile, Funway has appointed Sam Robinson as marketing manager and next week Christian Brett will join as marketing executive.
Funway is currently recruiting for a product and commercial manager, a commercial executive, operations executive and management accountant.
Marketing director Nick Talbot said: “We are expanding our team to react to all of the opportunities coming our way, and also to continue our growth.
“We are adding the positions to increase our dedicated campaigns with our travel agent partners.”
