Global accommodation-only specialist Stuba has appointed Marc Chandler as Head of Sales, Australia, strengthening trade and partner relationships in the region, while Rebecca Day has also been elevated to Head of Retail Sales, Asia Pacific.
Chandler brings more than 20 years’ industry experience and a proven track record in strategic execution and client services, including his most recent senior commercial roles as Strategic Account Director at Expedia and National Account Manager at Travelport.
In his new role, Chandler will oversee the overall sales strategy and revenue growth, manage the Australian sales team and expand the B2B wholesale hotel company’s commercial footprint, reporting to Rebecca Day.
With her promotion, Day has an expanded remit to focus on pricing, product and overall growth strategy across the APAC region, while moving away from day-to-day management of retail client sales.
Commenting on his new role, Chandler said: “I’m excited to be joining Stuba at such an exciting time for the business. The company’s reputation and commitment to partner success present a significant opportunity in the Australian market.”
Melbourne-based Day said: “We’re delighted to welcome someone of Marc’s calibre to the team. His extensive experience and strategic approach will be instrumental as we continue to grow Stuba’s presence in Australia and across the rest of APAC.”
“I’m looking forward to working closely with Marc to deliver even greater value to our partners and clients.”
