After rebranding as Pacific World EMEA in November 2011, the key focus of the DMC in the region has been to expand its geographic footprint.
The
four original destinations of Scotland, Portugal, Spain and Greece
have been supplemented by the opening of new offices in Paris and
Monaco on 1st February, shortly to be followed by the opening of a
London office on 1st March 2013.
Shaun
Casey, EMEA Regional Director comments, “We announced last year our
intention to further expand into EMEA. Rather than acquiring
companies, Pacific World has selected highly experienced business
professionals who share the same vision in terms of customer care,
creativity and operational excellence. I’m delighted to welcome
such experienced talent to our team. With more than 20 years’
experience in different organisations, each will make a valuable
contribution to our growth in the region”.
Evelyne
Mancini de Boni in Monaco and Hannelore Carzon in Barcelona will join
the EMEA senior management team reporting into Shaun Casey, EMEA
Regional Director. Corinne della Rocca and Laure Maida-Bigot from
Monaco and Cecile Dubeau and Laure Le Pendeven from Paris will also
move from other DMCs in the region to join Pacific World as part of
their expansion plans.
This
recruitment activity concludes the first of a three-phase
implementation for geographic expansion in the region. The next two
phases will see further openings in the region within the first half
of 2013 allowing Pacific World to optimize its considerable
investment in a sales organization focused on both traditional and
emerging source markets around the world.
