LEE MARSHALL Business Development Director, ITC Classics Lee Marshall is Business Development Director at luxury specialist ITC Classics, having re-joined the business in June 2010 following a gap of three-and-a-half years. Lee is a reluctant travel industry veteran, having started his career as an ABTA sponsored YTS with Thomas Cook, Dudley in 1985 and working in retail travel until 1993 where he joined Thomas Cook Holidays in Peterborough as Sales Manager. Leaving Thomas Cook in 2004, he joined ITC Classics as Head of Agency Sales, before a move to Gold Medal in Preston in 2007 as Head of Trade Relations, a role he describes as "very tough, but exceptionally rewarding" and his field sales team as "without exception, the best in the industry". Lee is now back with ITC and his key objectives are to re-energise ITC's trade business and deliver a strategy that positions ITC Classics as the leading independent tour operator in the luxury market segment. |
