Sutcliffe has 20 years’ experience in luxury travel. His love for travel grew after living in California in his early twenties as a professional skateboarder. 

“It gave me a sense of wanderlust that has never left me; there is nothing that quite compares to visiting a new place, seeing new sights, experiencing different cultures and making new friends,” he said.
 
“I decided that I wanted to work in an industry that gave me the opportunity to travel further than my wallet would otherwise allow. My background is luxury, long-haul travel, and I have visited all corners of the planet, from Argentina to Zimbabwe.”

Neil Sealy, head of trade sales, said: “As we continue to receive an exceptionally high number of enquiries and bookings, especially from our valued travel agents, it is wonderful to be welcoming yet another experienced travel professional to the Exsus team. 

“David brings with him a wealth of knowledge, particularly of the African continent and USA, plus experience as both a travel agent and a specialist tour operator, which I’m sure will be invaluable when working with our trade partners.”
