Scenic Group appoints Tansey to expanded trade team

Tansey has joined as sales manager for Scenic’s central territory, arriving from Vertical Travel Group having previously spent 13 years with Bourne Leisure. 

Her appointment follows that of Andrea Stafford last month, who becomes Scenic’s new director of trade sales after five years at MSC Cruises. Stafford said working in the river sector and with smaller ships had always been an aspiration of hers. 

“When this opportunity came along, it was a bit of a gift for me,” she told TTG. “The product is great, the business is very forward-thinking and it’s very exciting.” Stafford said Tansey was “really experienced and well-known within the trade” and would “bring a great dynamic to the team”.

Tansey added: “I’m really looking forward to hitting the ground running in my new role at such a dynamic business. We have so many exciting opportunities for agents in the pipeline, and I can’t wait to share these with agents in the central region and help them to fulfil their potential.”

Scenic has also recently recruited Jonathan Davies as sales manager for the north, while a promotion for Wendi Hardy sees her move into a newly created national key account manager position.
