ebookers plc, the leading European online travel agency announces a change to its Board of Directors.
Dr Sanjiv Talwar, Managing Director left the ebookers` Executive Board. He has decided to take a break from his career for health reasons.
Initially, Dr Talwar`s responsibilities will be taken over by the CEO, Dinesh Dhamija, and a management team which has been strengthened during the year with several key appointments, including Nigel Addison Smith as CFO, Philip Dale as CIO, and Thomas Meyjes as a new Regional Director.
Dinesh Dhamija CEO ebookers plc comments I would like to personally thank Sanjiv for the significant contribution he has made to ebookers. He has helped in building ebookers into the successful international business it has become. I fully understand the importance of his wish to concentrate on his health and family and wish him every success. I hope that Sanjiv will be able to work with the business again at some point in the future.
Sanjiv Talwar Managing Director ebookers plc comments Generally, health and career go hand in hand, but I have to recognise that over the past year, the former needed considerably more attention than I have been able to give in practice. In mid 1990s, in a similar situation, I ignored health, and paid heavily for it. Deciding to leave the most dynamic and interesting work place in my career, in perhaps the fastest growing industry, is difficult, but then perhaps in the future, I could work with the team again. Given the huge progress that has been made in strengthening the management and operations of the business I take comfort in the fact that I am leaving behind an organisation that is in a robust state and well positioned for continued strong growth. The break also gives me an opportunity to spend more quality time with my wife Vandana, and my children, Dhananjay and Anahita, before they become teenagers and I can no longer communicate with them.…
