TORONTO — Travel Leaders Network has welcomed back Caroline Belgrave to the team, in the new role of Business Solutions Manager for Western Canada.

Well known in the Canadian travel industry with over 17 years of experience, Belgrave will be responsible for driving growth, enhancing operational efficiency and building impactful partnerships.

Before joining the team, she served as a Business Development Manager at Nexion Travel Group, as well as a Senior Trainer at Travel Leaders Network where she created comprehensive learning resources and delivered top-tier training programs across North America.

Christine James, Vice President Canada at Travel Leaders Network, who Belgrave will report directly to, said the team is thrilled to welcome Belgrave in her new role.

“We are very fortunate to have this rising star on board with the wealth of industry knowledge she brings to our company from her prior experience with Travel Leaders Network and from within the travel and tourism sector,” said James.

On re-joining Travel Leaders Network, Belgrave said: “Stepping into this position feels like coming home – it’s that comforting sense of familiarity that makes everything feel right. I’m excited to engage in those first conversations that inspire, and I look forward to sharing my knowledge of Travel Leaders Network programs and products to help our members grow their sales and businesses.”

Belgrave succeeds Sue Urie, who recently passed away and who she credits for taking her under her wing earlier in her career.

“It’s truly an honour to follow in Sue Urie’s footsteps,” added Belgrave. “I consider Sue to be truly legendary. At every event we attended in Western Canada, she always made a point of introducing me and ensuring everyone knew they had strong representation in the West. I can still hear her distinctive laugh and I will miss her greatly. As I move forward in this role, I will carry her spirit and member-focused approach with me.”
