Chris Curlett and Jade Spurrell join the brand as business development executives, growing Wavemaker's UK-based trade team to five and underlining its "continued investment in building strong relationships with travel partners across the market".

Together with Carl Harris, Damian Parkes and Amie Reece, the pair will support trade partners across the country through targeted promotional activity while driving awareness of Wavemaker's property portfolio.

Curlett brings retail experience from his background as a Tui travel advisor; he was recognised as a regional top 10 seller in 2025, and was named top seller at Tui's Trafford Centre branch this year.
