ITC recruits second trade partnerships executive

ITC Travel Group has welcomed its second new trade partnerships executive to the team.

Haley Powell will be responsible for building trade relations in the north of England for the operator’s four brands: Inspiring Travel, Regent Holidays, Rainbow Tours and Spectate.

She has more than two decades of travel industry experience, having previously held roles at The Travel Directors, LoveHolidays and Broadway Travel Group.

Powell replaces Vicky McGlynn, who now works for Constantinou Bros Hotels, and reports into national trade partnership manager Gary Bates. She joins Suzanne Warren, who joined the team in September as trade partnerships executive for the south.

Bates said: “This will be Haley’s first role ‘on the road’, so to speak, so we are very excited that she can bring her experience, ideas and expertise as a travel agent to her new position here at ITC.

“As always, we’re hyper-focused on our trade partnerships and we look forward to continuing to build strong relationships with our key accounts, as well as nurturing new business through our variety of showcases and special events.”

Powell added: “I’m really looking forward to building lasting client relationships on behalf of ITC. My background combines strong sales expertise with hands-on business management, and I love driving new relationships within our wonderful travel industry."
