Barbara Kolosinska, director at C&M Travel Recruitment and C&M Executive Recruitment, said the duo were always "very popular members of the team" and were "well liked" by both their C&M colleagues and their travel clients.
"They are both highly skilled travel recruiters with years of experience, and we are sure their return will be warmly welcomed by the industry as we all attempt to combat the current skills shortage," she added.
