Powell joins &Beyond

Continuing its trend of pulling the big hitters, &Beyond has announced that it has drawn Ryan Powell back into the tourism industry, away from a near four-year stay at leading international management consultancy, Accenture.

In his new position as &Beyond sales director, he will draw on his eight years' experience with Sanctuary Lodges and Camps in Sales, including from his role as director of sales and marketing.

At Accenture he focussed on Customer Relationship Management Practice, with a specific interest in sales transformation between South Africa and the UK.

&Beyond CEO, Joss Kent, himself a fairly recent appointee, says that Ryan's experience, drive and knowledge of the industry will play an instrumental part in helping &Beyond succeed in their vision of becoming the leading luxury safari and experiential travel company.

In reply Powell cooed that &Beyond is a company that is admired for their quality safari experiences and the ability to consistently deliver exceptional guest delight. "I look forward to re-kindling relationships with the trade in the future and working closely with a very capable &Beyond sales team."
