The Globus family of brands has announced that Patrice Geske, director of marketing and 10-year employee, has chosen to retire at the end of June this year.

“Patrice will definitely be missed, not only by our team here in Canada and around the world, but by the many travel retailers and suppliers she has dealt with over the years,” said Stéphanie Bishop, managing director for the Globus family of brands in Canada. “Her talents and dedication have made significant contributions to our brand building and our success. We all wish her the very best in her retirement and many ‘bons voyages’.”

Geske joined the company in 2009 as marketing manager. “This has been a wonderful part of my 38-year career,” she said, “And I will miss my friends and colleagues in the Globus family around the world.”

The search for a director of marketing replacement is currently underway, both within and outside the travel industry, with the successful applicant to be announced in due course.
