Grace Sandwith will be based at Princess’ UK office in Southampton at Carnival House, where she will manage commercial relationships in her role as sales manager strategic accounts.

Sandwith will report into senior sales manager Karen Farndell plus Zoe Scott and Georgie Mireylees, Princess’ other sales managers.
