Hotelbeds has announced another update on further senior management appointments for the company. According to the news, Joaquin Garcia is now Regional Director of Wholesale Sales for Northern and Centre Europe,  and Luis Miguel Vazquez is the Regional Director for the South and Eastern Europe. Both will report directly to Sam Turner, the Wholesale Sales and Sourcing Director with global responsibility.

In their new roles they will be responsible for managing relationships and driving growth with wholesale clients, including tour operators, airlines, points redemption schemes, resellers and online travel agents.

Both Joaquin and Luis Miguel have an extended career within the travel industry and, specifically, in Hotelbeds, where they have undertaken different leadership roles within the company for over 10 years each.

Additionally, Hotelbeds has confirmed the line-up of the teams who will report to both Joaquin and Luis Miguel, combining existing internal talent from across the three bedbanks, Hotelbeds, GTA, and Tourico Holidays. Sam Turner, Wholesale Sales & Sourcing Director at Hotelbeds, offered this:

“I am delighted to see Joaquin  and Luis Miguel take on their roles as Regional Directors for Wholesale Sales in Europe to help us realise the further potential that this important region holds. As seasoned leaders with 20 plus years of experience and together with talented and dedicated teams reporting into them, I am confident that they will solidify our leadership position in the region.”

Luis Miguel Vazquez, Regional Director of Wholesale Sales for the South and Eastern Europe commented about the current positive results of the company along with the upbeat nature of this most recent news. Joaquin Garcia, Regional Director of Wholesale Sales for Northern and Centre Europe added:

“It is an exciting and thrilling opportunity to take on this role overseeing the European region, together with my colleague Luis Miguel, identifying the huge opportunities within the industry, maintaining long term and key commercial partnerships, and further strengthening the company’s leading regional presence. The result of the integration of our three bedbanks is equally exciting; this allows us to offer best-in-class products, services and solutions to our customers, driving more value in our partnership and continue the positive trajectory of our success story in Europe- Despite being an established market, Europe has a long journey of growth ahead of it still.“

Since January, the company has been identifying top employee profiles from the three companies, at both the senior management and management levels, in order to better respond to the needs of the company’s expanded operations following the integration of Tourico Holidays and GTA last year. Already over 350 appointments have been made in the year-to-date.
