Marella Cruises has bolstered its trade support with two appointments
Gavin Enever has become the line's first dedicated key account manager and has been tasked with working closely with agents across the UK, with a particular focus on the north of England, to provide dedicated support for frontline sales teams.
Prior to this role, Enever worked for Marella's parent company TUI as a key account manager for the north.
Meanwhile, Conor Braniff has been appointed as trade training manager. He joins from TUI's content team where he worked as a marketing and lifestyle copywriter.
In his new role, Braniff will lead Marella's training and engagement strategy for trade partners to help improve their product knowledge.
Both appointments take effect today (9 November) and "form part of Marella's continued investment in strengthening its relationships with the trade and providing agents with dedicated support," the line said.
Chris Hackney, chief executive, added: "Travel agents are hugely important to Marella Cruises and these appointments demonstrate our continued commitment to giving our trade partners the support, knowledge and expertise they need.
"We're delighted to welcome Gavin and Conor to the team. Their appointments reflect our commitment to giving our people opportunities to develop, build new skills and gain experiences that support their future careers.
"Gavin's appointment gives us dedicated on the road support for Marella Cruises for the first time, while Conor brings a great combination of training experience and knowledge of the brand. Together, they'll help us strengthen our relationships with trade partners and set our teams up for future success."
