Web developers and designers


Transfer companies ensure


travellers are met at airports and ports on time and taken to their hotels, while car hire companies supply vehicles for independent travellers. And, of course, there are


hospitality jobs, including chefs, receptionists and housekeepers (see page 41).


An eye-catching and easy- to-use website is a vital tool for most travel companies, with developers and designers ensuring they work well and look great


Ashleigh Foster is senior brand executive for Haven, part of Bourne Leisure, one of the UK’s largest providers of holidays and holiday homes


I joined Bourne Leisure in 2009 as a holiday


advisor, taking calls and making bookings and I’ve never looked back. From day one I was pushed to achieve my full potential, developing my career by taking different pathways and exploring different skill sets. I moved through the telemarketing team to project management and sales before joining Haven’s marketing department. A huge part of my remit is to ensure our teams live and breathe Haven values, which is easy when you love your job. The atmosphere is truly nurturing and if you’re determined to succeed, opportunities are always there.
