5Continents welcomes Tammy Olivier to team

5Continents is welcoming Calgary-based Tammy Olivier to its sales team.

With an extensive background in customer service (she worked for the RCMP at one point) and sales (seven years at FunSun) and a passion for travel (and hiking), Olivier on board to take 5Continents to the next level.

“I'm thrilled to be back in the industry! I've had a passion for travel from the time I went on my first trip with my family to Disneyland and haven't looked back since. From the mountains of Nepal, seeing the Big Five in Africa, the high-tech toilets in Japan, the jellyfish in Fiji…I've loved every moment of it (including the flight delays, airline strikes, volcano eruptions,” Olivier said in a press release. “I've seen it all and can't wait for my next adventure.”

David Boigné, managing partner, said he is “ecstatic" to welcome Tammy to the 5Continents family.

“This is a milestone for 5Continents, we could not be prouder to strengthen our presence in Western Canada,” he said. “Being a purely B2B business, with no plan to ever go direct to consumer, we want to ensure we put all resources in place to deliver the best service possible to the travel agents’ community.”

“The support we have been seeing from travel advisors is absolutely phenomenal. It is just natural to give them even more support.”
