Debra Kearney has had wide experience in all sectors of the travel industry
Hot on the heels of the announcement that Ponant has moved to bigger premises in North Sydney to cope with the company’s growth in Australia, comes news that Debra Kearney has been appointed to the newly created role of business development manager for New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory.

Kearney, who will be based in the new office at North Sydney, will be responsible for building existing relationships and developing business opportunities with key trade partners.

‘Debra brings 24 years of travel experience and established relationships in retail, wholesale and MICE market sectors, understanding all the elements required to work closely with the travel industry at all levels,’ Ponant’s Asia Pacific commercial director Deb Corbett said.

Corbett said Kearney will be an asset to the company, ‘especially during this busy period of growth as we double the size of our fleet with the imminent introduction of our four new expedition ships.’
