TRAFALGAR has moved quickly to fill the gap left by the departure of its sales director, Rachael Harding (TD 09 Jul), today confirming the appointment of Sally Sylvester (pictured) to the key role.
Sylvester joins The Travel Corporation after more than two decades with the Flight Centre Travel Group, most recently as general manager of the company’s Travel Associates brand (TD 22 Mar 2017).
“Following an extensive search, Sally’s core work in sales management and training fuelled by her passion for building and inspiring sales teams made her a stand-out,” said Trafalgar md Matthew Cameron-Smith.
“Her breadth of expertise and experience with retail, franchise and home-based agents will be a real asset to Trafalgar,” he added.
Sylvester’s other previous roles within FCTG include eight years as state leader for NSW/ACT as well as area leader for NSW.
Harding, who has been with TTC for more than 15 years, finishes up this week to take up her new role as head of Club Med.
Trafalgar has also just welcomed Cassie Zuill as its new head of marketing, joining from her former role as global manager of consumer marketing at Tourism Australia (TD 06 Jul).
