We’re thrilled to extend a warm welcome to the team to Adam Beeken, who has joined us as a trainee marketing assistant for the summer period, right through to the end of September. Adam’s venture with us promises to be an enriching journey of learning and growth, reflecting our ongoing commitment to nurturing young talent.

Adam, currently a second-year Sport and Exercise Science student at Durham University, brings to our team a genuine enthusiasm for travel, matched with a keen eagerness to gain experience in the exciting field of marketing within the travel industry. His arrival marks a wave of fresh ideas and opinions, invigorating our marketing strategies with youthful insight and innovation.

Gilly Bachelor shared her excitement about having Adam onboard:

Adam approached us with a genuine interest and impressive knowledge about our business. It’s inspiring to see such passion in a young individual, and we’re eager to mentor him while also learning from his fresh perspectives.

Adam’s contribution goes beyond his responsibilities as a trainee marketing assistant. With an extensive background in sports and exercise science, he offers us a unique lens through which to view and explore the rising trend of sport and exercise-based holidays. His academic insights coupled with his travels position him perfectly to advise on active holiday trends that are increasingly capturing the interest of travellers seeking fitness and adventure in exotic locales.

Speaking of his new role, Adam expressed his excitement and future aspirations:

I’ve always had a deep-rooted passion for travel, and the opportunity to work within the travel industry is something I’ve long aspired to. This summer work placement with Gilly and her fantastic team is the perfect setting for me to apply my knowledge and passion while acquiring invaluable skills and experience in a professional setting.

Our goal is not only to offer Adam a platform to gain experience but also to infuse our team with his fresh ideas and opinions, enriching our marketing strategies and ensuring we stay ahead of the curve in delivering personalised and interesting travel experiences to our clients.

Welcome to the team, Adam. Here’s to a summer of invaluable experiences, collaborative success, and a deeper exploration into the vast, exciting world of travel.
