Two senior Celebrity Cruises executives leave after restructuring
Hannah Simpson and Michael English have departed as the cruise line completes a review of regional sales and marketing teams.
Celebrity Cruises’ head of trade marketing, communications and support, Hannah Simpson, and its head of business development for Europe, the Middle East and Africa, Michael English, have left the company following an internal restructuring.
The cruise line confirmed in June that it was reviewing the organization of its sales and marketing teams across several regions, including the UK and Ireland. Claire Stirrup, Celebrity Cruises’ managing director for the UK and EMEA, has since confirmed that the review was complete but declined to discuss personal matters.
Simpson said on LinkedIn that her position had been made redundant and that she was available for new opportunities.
English departed Celebrity Cruises in June after holding a series of business development and sales positions for nearly 20 years. He had worked for parent company Royal Caribbean Group for more than 33 years.
