Victoria Snelgar has been promoted to the role of business manager partnership development.

In her new position, Snelgar will lead Cunard’s team of six regional partnership development managers.

She was previously responsible for the line’s sales operations team and took the lead on the launch of the Cunard Shine Rewards Club.

TTG 30 Under 30 alumni Amy Williams, meanwhile, has been promoted to the role of senior business manager.

She will oversee Cunard’s trade distribution approach, and lead the sales teams for the line’s three ships.

Williams was previously partnership business manager within the Cunard sales team, with responsibility for key accounts.

Their appointments come as Cunard moves into its second year of operation with a dedicated sales team.

Parent Carnival took the decision in 2017 to separate the Cunard and P&O Cruises sales teams, which swung into operation last spring.

Cunard sales director Gary Anslow said: "In our first year of operation, the Cunard sales team delivered some exceptional results, as we broadened and deepened our trade relationships, particularly in the luxury sector.

“Both Victoria and Amy played critical roles in that success and these promotions are fully deserved. These new roles further strengthen our focus on building great trade partner relationships.”
