Jason Edwards Travel has elevated Lloyd McGowan (pictured, right) to the role of General Manager and Leanne Williams (pictured, left) to Sales and Marketing Manager. They each step up from Business Development Manager positions with the Pontypridd business.
The appointments follow earlier promotions at the growing operator during the latter half of 2024. It says that the latest moves follow “a very successful first year of trading” and are due to “the high volume of sales and interest in our business,” which delivers coach tourism products and undertakes National Express contracted work.
Prior to joining Jason Edwards Travel, Mr McGowan was UK Product Manager at Just Go! Holidays. Before that he worked for Edwards Coaches for 15 years.
Ms Williams spent many years with The Original Travel House before being recruited by the start-up in 2024. Jason Edwards Travel describes her and Mr Williams as bringing “a wealth of experience and passion for the coach travel industry.”
Speaking about the latest appointments, Managing Director Jason Edwards says: “Lloyd and Leanne are an absolute pleasure to work alongside.
“Their positive energy is infectious, and with the fantastic problem of trebling growth in year one, we need to be able to grow and support our customer demands of exceptional value for money holidays and first-class service with a smile.
“With 2025 looking to be an amazing year, it is so good that we can support our existing staff to grow alongside and support our business.”
