The company said Byron, who joined as insights director in early 2018, had decided to “take on a new challenge outside of the travel industry” which he will start next year.
Royal’s UK and Ireland sales team will report in the short term to head of sales admin and trade marketing Nicki Lewis.
Byron’s departure comes just a fortnight after Torey Kings-Hodkin, Royal’s head of sales, joined Disney Destinations International as its new EMEA trade sales and marketing director.
