Superbreak, the York based tour operator, has announced the
appointment of Darren Neylon as Marketing, E-Commerce & Commercial
Director. The position is a new one and oversees the key direct

customers.
The position is the first senior commercial appointment by Eamonn Ferrin who joined
the company as Managing Director in January 2010. He commented: "Since becoming
Managing Director I have been giving a lot of thought to the question of how we can
become an even better company and how we create a faster moving, more innovative and
above all, a more customer-focused company. Darren's appointment is key to meeting
this challenge."
Darren has worked for over 10 years in a number of senior e-commerce and commercial
roles in the mobile and retail sectors. Recent roles include Managing Director of
Valuecomparison.com and Mobileshop.com, Director of E-Commerce for Miller Brothers
Retail and E-Commerce Programme Director for Littlewoods Shop Direct Group. Prior to
these roles, he spent his early career in Finance & Merchant banking.
Commenting on his new role at Superbreak, Darren said: "I am excited by the challenge at Superbreak and of course the move into the travel
sector. We want to deliver a seamless, multi-channel proposition directly to the
customer which focuses on value, convenience and service. Making the website more
usable and engaging for customers is one of my key goals. We aim to make sure that
customers are excited to come back to us time and time again because they find the
content and range of products both relevant and enticing."
