Samantha Gillingham Joins Bedsonline as Key Account Manager

Bedsonline has announced Samantha Gillingham has been named Key Account Manager, effective immediately.

In a social media post, Gillingham thanked Bedsonline’s Tommy Ryder, Head of Sales, North America, whom she will be reporting to.

“Thank you so much Tommy Ryder! I’m absolutely thrilled to be joining the Bedsonline team! I’m looking forward to collaborating with our incredible travel partners across Eastern Canada and bringing my passion and experience in the Canadian travel market to this new chapter.

To all the amazing travel advisors out there — I can’t wait to reconnect, hit the road, and work alongside you to help grow your business and inspire your clients. Being back out in the field is exactly where I want to be, and I’m so excited for what’s ahead! Let’s make magic happen!” Gillingham continued.

“Welcome to the team,” Ryder said in his own social media post. “Looking forward to partnering with you to support our travel agencies and agents in Eastern Canada. Sam joins us with a wealth of knowledge and expertise in the Canadian Travel Market.”

In March of this year, Gillingham was named Director of Sales and Business Development at Jayne’s Luxury Rentals after leaving Club Med, where she was Key Accounts and BDM for five years. Prior to her time at Club Med, she was Manager, Group Sales at Sunwing.
