Rebecca Argent joins Fred Olsen from Cruise118 parent World Travel Holdings where she has spent the past more than four years liaising with lines as a cruise product executive.

She also brings experience to her new specialist sales account manager role from Travelpack. Fred Olsen said this first-hand experience meant she understood the tailored account management, training and support the line's trade partners need to sell its cruises confidently.

Argent joined the Fred Olsen sales team in late-March and will "work closely with trade partners across the North West and beyond" to support continued development of "strong, collaborative relationships".

"I’m looking forward to getting to know our agent partners, building strong relationships and working closely together to create memorable holiday experiences for our valued guests," said Argent.

Field sales manager Mathew Foxcroft added: "Rebecca brings with her a great depth of industry knowledge and a genuine understanding of the travel trade.

"We’re delighted to welcome her to Fred Olsen Cruise Lines and are confident she will be a real asset to our agent partners as we continue to strengthen relationships and support long‑term growth."
