The car rental firm welcomed Audrey Thomson from MTC Marketing and Diane Risk of TradeConnect as sales representatives this summer.

Thomson who joined in August is now representative for Scotland, while Risk who joined the firm earlier this month is sales representative of Northern Ireland.

Thomson, who is well known within the Scottish travel trade, has previous experience in offering sales representation and travel recruitment services to clients specialising in the travel and hospitality sector, including airlines, luxury, tour operators and hotels.

Elsewhere, Risk’s travel industry experience spans almost two decades as she launched TradeConnect in 2011, following several years with Hotelconnect where she held the position of business development manager.

Sue Dixon, managing director of Flexible Autos, said: “We are thrilled with the appointments of MTC in Scotland and TradeConnect to represent us in Northern Ireland.

"Both Audrey and Diane come with a fantastic reputation and their knowledge of the travel trade make them a great fit for our fast-growing sales team.”
