Otravo appoints Joost Schuring, former Amadeus executive, as new CEO
Veteran in the online travel industry
Joost Schuring (46) has had 17 years of work experience in successive management positions at Amadeus and is therefore highly familiar with all aspects of the global travel and tourism industry and with major players such as Otravo. He worked for Amadeus in Spain, the United States, Brazil and Germany.
Expanding leading position together
Schuring succeeds Raymond Vrijenhoek, who has helped to shape the powerful growth of Otravo and its brands since 2016.
