Sarah Turner has been enlisted "to capitalise on that demand," according to trade sales manager Greg Thurston.
With a focus on the south of the UK, Sarah will strive to strengthen existing relationships with agents and foster new ones.
Greg continued: "We have seen a fantastic response from agents to Audley working more closely with the trade over the last few years, but there is still so much potential, and an ever-increasing demand from agents to partner with us.
"Sarah’s passion, experience and initiative will enable us to capitalise on that demand by fostering even closer working partnerships, using her contacts and expertise to help more agents and homeworkers discover our unique brand of tailor-made travel."
Sarah added: "I have long been an admirer of Audley's approach to meaningful and responsible luxury travel. Having watched Greg's great success in introducing the brand to the trade, I am so excited to join the team and work with him to showcase the knowledge of Audley's specialists to trade partners across the south."
Audley Travel's new BDM brings with her experience from recent roles with APT Travel Group, Abercrombie & Kent and Railbookers, among others.
