Earlier this year, the expedition cruise line pledged to increase the support it offers travel agents due to rising demand for its polar products.

It has now expanded its UK team with three new hires including Dan Anders, Goran Subasic and Kate Patterson-Green all joining.

Anders will support newly promoted Clark as business development executive; Subasic joins the reservations team from Silversea; and Patterson-Green will work within the line's global guest relations team, reporting into guest relations director Kim Daplyn.
