Discova appoints Susan Ogden to drive expansion plans

The appointment is part of the DMC’s “ambitious” growth plans and Ogden moves to the newly created role after previously heading up Discova’s worldwide expansion strategy.

Discova, which is part of Flight Centre Travel Group, said it was also restructuring departments to integrate sourcing and distribution teams with its technology and business systems.

Ogden said: “I’m really excited for the opportunity to build on our strategy for expansion. We’ve had some very interesting projects bubbling away during the travel hibernation period and I can’t wait to start bringing them to life as the world reopens.

“By aligning our sourcing and distribution teams with the expertise of our business solutions team, we’re able to leverage technology solutions to drive efficiency in our product-to-market process and expand our distribution capability.

“This means we can provide our partners with access to a world-class product range for their tailor-made or group customers, and enable them to transact and collaborate with us in any way they prefer - whether that’s by email, phone, online booking portal or direct API integration.”
