TravelManagers has appointed experienced travel industry executive, Josh Halligan, as its new Corporate Growth Lead, as TravelManagers strengthens its offering under the Corporate Travel Specialists (CTS) brand.
Halligan brings extensive experience across travel management, technology and corporate sales, positioning him ideally to drive the growth strategy for CTS and support its network of corporate-focused travel advisors.
According to TravelManagers’ Operations Manager, Troy Coelho, Halligan’s appointment marks an important step in the company’s continued growth.

His exceptional depth of experience and insight into how technology, date and automation are shaping the future of corporate travel will play a key role in strengthening our corporate offering.”
Halligan says he was drawn to CTS’s unique business model of empowering experienced travel professionals to operate their own businesses while delivering high-level service to corporate clients.
