ACTA’s Lesley Berry Promoted to Membership Manager

Lesley Berry has been promoted at ACTA.

The Association of Canadian Travel Agencies and Travel Advisors (ACTA) has announced the promotion of Lesley Berry, CTC, to Membership Manager.

Berry holds a Bachelor of Arts in Tourism and Parks Management / Tourism Development Honours, from the University of Waterloo and is a Certified Travel Counsellor (CTC). She has been part of the travel and tourism industry since 2007, with a diverse background that includes experience as a travel advisor, flight attendant, hospitality and tourism instructor, and Disney specialist. 

“Lesley’s industry experience, strong relationships, and dedication to our members make her a natural fit for this role,” said ACTA President Suzanne Acton-Gervais. “We are confident she will continue to strengthen ACTA’s support for travel agencies and travel advisors across Canada and further enhance the value we deliver to our membership.”

Berry joined ACTA nearly three years ago as Membership Coordinator. Most recently, she served as Interim Manager, Meetings and Events, stepping into the role during a maternity leave and ensuring the continued success of ACTA’s international, national and regional events.

“I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to step into the role of Membership Manager and to work alongside such a dedicated, hard-working team,” said Berry. 

“Being part of the membership team means connecting with our members, advocating on their behalf, and promoting the important work they do in an ever-changing industry. I’m proud to continue building momentum with ACTA and supporting our members every step of the way.”
