Gifted Travel Network is excited to announce the promotion and expansion of new roles and responsibilities to seven team members.

“We believe strongly in tapping into each team member’s individual skills, interests, and natural abilities,” said Gifted Travel Network Chief Executive Officer, Jennifer Cochrane, “That means giving our staff opportunities to change roles and grow over time as well as continuing to build the team so that we can honor their work-life balance while we support our advisors. Our Network’s overall travel sales are up well over 400% year-to-date as compared to 2019.  At the same time, our team has just about doubled. That’s a lot of change in a short time frame. I am incredibly proud of our leadership team’s accomplishments and I’m confident in their ability to shepherd GTN into the future.”
