Sandals and Beaches appoints Simon Foster as deputy managing director of Unique Caribbean Holidays

Sandals and Beaches has appointed Simon Foster as deputy managing director of its tour operator Unique Caribbean Holidays Ltd, which launched earlier this year.

Foster will also be deputy managing director for Unique Vacations UK Ltd, Sandals and Beaches Resorts’ worldwide representatives.

He is promoted from director of market development at Unique Vacations.

Sandals and Beaches’ managing director, UK and Europe, Karl Thompson, said: “Our business has changed dramatically since Simon joined us seven years ago and it is thanks to his drive and experience that we are now flourishing as both a fully-fledged tour operator (Unique Caribbean Holidays Ltd) and as a sales and marketing representation company (Unique Vacations UK Ltd).

“As our business continues to evolve we need people like Simon who can demonstrate both imagination and perseverance to fulfil our goals. Simon’s in-depth knowledge of the aviation and travel sector is second to none and his commercial acumen places him in high esteem within the industry.”

Foster will continue to work with Thompson to build and grow relationships for the business via trade partners, airlines and tour operators, while continuing to head up the company’s commercial team at its London head office.
