Newmarket Holidays has appointed a new account manager for Scotland and Ireland.

Amy Drummond, who has previous business development experience with Cara Hotels Marketing and Funway Holidays, will join the Newmarket team from November 4.

“I can’t wait to get started,” Drummond said. “It’s a new role and shows the commitment we have to growing our partnerships, and I look forward to getting out there and sharing the fantastic range of tours in the Newmarket portfolio.”

Richard Forde, head of trade sales at Newmarket, said the company is also in the process of recruiting account managers for south/south-west and south/south-east regions.

He said: “We are delighted to welcome Amy to the team – her drive and passion for the travel industry is just what we were looking for to enhance the opportunities in Scotland and Ireland.

“It’s exciting times for Newmarket Holidays, despite the challenges faced this year we have continued to grow and need to invest in our team to further that expansion.”
