Carrier’s former Head of Marketing Natasha Towey has announced that she is ‘thrilled’ to have been appointed as MD of the luxury operator.

She replaces Mark Duguid, who has moved to sister operator Kuoni to take over as UK MD following the departure of Derek Jones, CEO of Kuoni parent DER Touristik UK.

In a Linkedin post, Natasha wrote: “I’m extremely passionate and proud of what we have already achieved as a company.

“Carrier is tended by people who love it (me being one of them), it’s why it has a personality and culture you won’t find anywhere else.

“I believe there’s something truly special and personal about why we stand out, why we win awards – and it’s our people and our values. It’s both an ambition and privilege to lead such an established, reputable and successful brand.”

Natasha joined Carrier 11 years ago as Digital Marketing Manager, before being promoted to Head of Marketing in August 2017.
