Jason Oshiokpekhai will be based in London and oversee daily operations for the companies.
He was formerly director of sales and account management for Travel Leaders’ luxury brands and prior to joining the group in 2016, worked in the corporate sales divisions of Delta Air Lines and American Airlines.
Ninan Chacko, Travel Leaders Group chief executive, said the company planned “to accelerate the growth of our UK operations in the coming year”.
“We are looking to recruit new independent contractors and are focused on providing maximum support to our agents in winning and retaining corporate accounts and are working on additional ways to help them increase their profitability,” he added.
Oshiokpekhai’s new role will not include Barrhead Travel, which was acquired by Travel Leaders in February.
