Norwegian Cruise Line (NCL), has announced the appointment of Jason Krimmel as its head of international business.
In his new role, Mr Krimmel will oversee NCL’s Sales, Marketing and Communication efforts outside of the US and Canada to expand the brand’s international footprint. With a specific focus on optimising collaboration between regions, surfacing new sales opportunities and driving campaigns.
In this role, he will report to Todd Hamilton, the Company’s Senior Vice President of Sales.
”During his 19-year tenure at NCL, Jason has championed several roles and headed various departments across the organization,” said Todd Hamilton, NCL’s Senior Vice President of Sales. “His vast experience, international mindset and exceptional leadership make him the right person to strengthen our Brand’s position with international trade and consumers while we’re preparing to welcome five additional ships of our ground-breaking Prima Class and extend our capacity by 40% by 2027.”
Reporting to Mr Krimmel will be Gary Anslow, who has served as Senior Sales Director in the UK and Ireland since November 2021. Anslow remains responsible for expanding NCL’s business and revenue in one of its key international source markets, focusing on building brand presence and distribution across the region.
Coinciding with this news is another major senior management shake-up at NCL; executive Nick Wilkinson has left NCL’s business in the UK after more than 20 years.
