Princess Cruises has increased its UK sales team with the appointment of Grace Sandwith as sales manager of strategic accounts.

Sandwith will be based at the cruise line’s UK office in Southampton, Carnival House. She will manage the commercial relationships, as well as advertising and marketing support, of several strategic accounts.

The former divisional merchandise manager at Harrods will report to Karen Farndell, senior sales manager, together with Princess UK’s other sales managers, Zoe Scott and Georgie Mireylees. The appointment brings the sales function up to 15 team members dedicated to supporting the trade.

At Harrods, Sandwith was responsible for the concessions within womenswear, accessories, shoes, and childrenswear. This included the operational management of accounts such as Chanel, Dior, and Cartier.

Rachel Poultney, Princess Cruises’ sales director UK & Europe, said: “Grace brings with her a wealth of experience managing large commercial accounts at Harrods and we’re very excited to have her onboard.

“Her time working in a prestigious, luxury sector means she is ideally placed to maintain and enhance our premium positioning with agents.”
