Riviera Travel has named Mark Kidman as its new Key Account Manager for the south and southeast.
Mark has previously worked as a Commercial Executive at TUI and an Account Manager at Secret Escapes. His most recent roles were at Deliveroo, as Corporate Account Manager, and Groupon, as Key Account Manager.
Riviera described Mark as a ‘real people person’ and a ‘fantastic addition to the trade team’, which he will join on 7 April.
He will report directly to National Sales Manager Claire Hills, boosting Riviera’s on-the-road team in the UK and Ireland to nine.
“I am beyond excited to announce my new role as Key Account Manager at Riviera Travel,” said Mark. “With a huge passion for the travel industry, having worked at both TUI and Secret Escapes throughout my career, I believe this will be a fantastic transition into the world of river cruises and tours.
“It’s an incredible honour to be part of the hugely successful trade team at Riviera Travel, as we embark on our journey ahead together. I’m truly looking forward to building and enhancing relationships across our Key Agent Partners in the south and, of course, driving continued success along the way.”
Claire added: “It’s certainly exciting times here at Riviera Travel as we welcome Mark to our expanding team. We work hard to offer the right support to our valued travel agents as we strive to become the easiest business to do business with.”
