As COO, Josh will be responsible for driving further growth for Snaptrip.com, through helping to shape the company mission and leading the team to deliver a fantastic customer experience every time.

On his new role, Josh said: “Over the past four years the Snaptrip.com team has laid an incredibly strong foundation upon which to grow. I can’t wait to work with such an enthusiastic group of people and get stuck in.

“With more and more people choosing to take a staycation rather than go abroad it felt like the perfect time to join and I’m really looking forward to making my mark and harnessing the huge potential of Snaptrip.com. The road is seldom straight but I’m sure we’ll overcome anything that stands in our way.”

Snaptrip.com is also welcoming Matthew Witt to the team as a Board Director and Investor. Matthew has a strong background in travel, having been COO of Active Hotels, and played an instrumental role in rebranding it into Booking.com where he then worked as COO before taking on a number of Non-Executive and Advisory roles in travel and related industries.

It’s an exciting period for Snaptrip.com and their knowledge, experience and expertise will really strengthen the company so that we can help even more customers find the perfect UK holiday destination.”
