Independence Group Business Development Managers head back to the floor

29/01/2026


Business Development Managers from the Hays Travel Independence Group have headed back to the floor to help during the busy peaks season.

The initiative was set up to help the team gather valuable feedback from members of the consortium which has been supporting entrepreneurs for more than 30 years.

Three Business Development Managers visited branches – Amber Bradshaw, who travelled to Barnstaple Travel; Helen Williamson, who spent the day with Admiral Travel Wilmslow; and Stephen Brown, who headed to Seaside Travel Easington.

Between them, they rolled up their sleeves and got stuck in with window cards, social media content, supporting customers, and a spot of cleaning.

Harriet Thompson, Head of the Hays Travel Independence Group, said: “Our back to the floor days serve as a great reminder of how hard our members work to provide the very best customer service and value for their customers.

“Thank you to Barnstaple Travel, Admiral Travel, and Seaside Travel for welcoming the team into their branches last week. Our Business Development Managers thoroughly enjoyed the day working and gathering feedback on how we can continue to develop as a consortium.”
