Contiki takes on Naughton in Sydney office

Contiki has announced the appointment of Nathaly Naughton to the role of Head of Sales of Contiki Australia, based in the Sydney office.

Naughton brings to the team strong experience in the sales industry. As a tourism industry professional, the last 10 years of her career have been spent in sales and general management roles with STA Travel across the US, South Africa and Australia markets, most recently as a regional sales manager at STA Travel in Victoria/South Australia. Her early career was with Carnival Cruises.

Contiki Australia’s managing director Katrina Barry said it is exciting to bring Naughton on board.

“Nathaly’s commercial and strategic skills, as well as her strong knowledge of the retail industry given her background as a travel agent, will bring valuable insights and skills to ensure the continued success of our team,” Barry said.

“Additionally, her experience with STA Travel gives her an in-depth understanding of the youth travel market. Nathaly’s exceptional leadership qualities, passion and results-driven approach will assist us in developing stronger relationships with trade partners ahead of a very busy European summer selling season.”
