Crisis Cover appoints new Senior Consultant
Assistance provider Crisis Cover has appointed Mark Linton as Senior Consultant, Sales and Strategic Development, North America, signalling a renewed confidence in the recovery of international travel
Linton brings 30 plus years of travel insurance industry experience to the team, according to Crisis Cover CEO Carole Tokody.
“This experience includes 15 years as Vice President Sales and National Accounts with RBC Insurance, two years with Cover-More as Head of Sales for USA and Canada, where we worked together, and 18 months as a senior consultant with FocusPoint International,” Tokody added.
“As the world emerges from the Covid-19 pandemic and more people return to international travel, Mark’s knowledge, relationships, and passion for the industry’s recovery will be invaluable in raising awareness about Crisis Cover’s innovative safety, security and protection services.”
Linton is based in Toronto, Canada and started with Crisis Cover in October 2021. “It’s been a tough couple of years in the travel sector, but North Americans are gradually returning to international travel, more aware than ever that they need to plan for their safety and wellbeing,” Linton said. “In this role, I look forward to working with travel advisors, airlines and tour operators by enhancing their value proposition to their valued clients while, at the same time, encouraging consumers to get back to international travel with Crisis Cover.”
