Nicola Poultney

Nicola Poultney began her role as the first Chief Executive of Devon’s new tourism marketing organisation Destination Devon in April.

Poultney comes to the organisation from Cardiff & Co – the body charged with marketing the Welsh capital to the world – and brings with her extensive experience of the British tourism industry.

She will be looking to raise the profile of all aspects of what the region has to offer group tourism including its broad range of accommodation options and attractions.

After working closely with the groups market in the past, Poultney understands its importance to Devon’s £2 billion tourism industry and will be looking at what can be done to attract more group organisers to the region.
