Super Break appoints new national sales manager
Super Break has appointed Gary Gillespie to the role of national sales manager, replacing Graham Balmforth who retired at the end of January.
Gillespie moves to Super Break from Innstant Travel, where he was head of sales.
He takes up the role from today and will be responsible for the six-strong sales team.
Gillespie will report directly to Julie Pinkney, customer experience director and will continue to work side-by-side with Chris Cundall, head of trade relations who manages the close relationships with the multiples.
He began his career in branch as a retail travel agent for both Neilson Travel and Thomas Cook Retail before moving to head office as business development manager and then head of sales and training for Thomas Cook’s Flexibletrips.
