Travelsoft is proud to announce that Mike Wright will be promoted to become the new Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Travelsoft portfolio brand The Atcore Group effective 1st October 2024.
Mike Wright has been a key figure for over 20 years at The Atcore Group, whose reservation and distribution platforms ATCOM and Tigerbay power business transformation for the global brands such as TUI, easyJet holidays, and DERTOUR Group.
During his time with Atcore Mike has held various leadership roles across the organization, whose travel platforms power over 23 million holidays and over £20 billion in bookings each year. His deep understanding of the operations of Atcore coupled with his extensive experience in the travel technology sector, positions him perfectly to lead the company into its next phase of growth.
“We are thrilled to appoint Mike Wright as Atcore’s CEO,” said Christian Sabbagh, founder and CEO of Travelsoft, which acquired Atcore earlier this year. “Mike’s long-standing commitment to Atcore and his proven leadership make him the ideal person to steer the company forward. We would also like to express our sincere thanks to Dave Cruickshank for his outstanding contributions and wish him all the best in his future pursuits.”
Adding to this, new CEO Mike Wright said: “I am excited to step into the role of CEO at The Atcore Group and lead a company that has consistently set the standard for innovation and excellence in our industry. During my time with Atcore I’ve witnessed the incredible impact our technology has had on our clients and the market. I’m committed to driving our business forward, continuing to deliver exceptional service and innovation to our customers, and exploring new opportunities for further growth and success.”
Mike succeeds Dave Cruickshank, who is moving on to pursue new opportunities outside of the company. Dave has been instrumental in steering The Atcore Group through a period of significant transformation and growth and most recently guided the company through its successful acquisition to become part of Travelsoft.
The Atcore Group remains dedicated to providing best-in-class travel technology solutions and looks forward to the exciting developments ahead under Mike Wright’s leadership.
