Following our acquisition of VCK Travel<\/a> at the start of this year, we are delighted to announce the appointment of Gray Dawes Group COO, Dave Bishop, as Managing Director of our Netherlands-based operation.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/p>\n

After a period of impressive growth and development, VCK Travel proudly announces a change in leadership within the company. <\/strong><\/p>\n

As of May 1, 2024, Ed Berrevoets will step down as director, and Dave Bishop will assume the role of Managing Director, with the aim of continuing VCK Travel’s growth as part of the Gray Dawes Group.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ed has made a lasting impression on VCK Travel as Managing Director. With his leadership and dedication, the company has become a leading player in the fields of business travel, marine travel, and government travel. Under his guidance, VCK Travel has solidified its position as a prominent player distinguished by transparent and innovative services with a personal touch.<\/p>\n

This decision marks a crucial milestone following the acquisition by Gray Dawes Travel in January 2024. After nearly twenty years of leading the company with energy and dedication, Ed has decided to retire from VCK Travel. This decision has been carefully made in consultation with the Works Council and with Gray Dawes. Ed will continue to support the company until he retires on June 30, 2024.<\/p>\n

[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ admin_label=”content” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”9px|||||” collapsed=”on” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”boilerplate” _builder_version=”4.23.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

VCK Travel is a Dutch corporate travel agency with four offices spread across the country, providing travel solutions for businesses. With an annual turnover of \u20ac220 million, VCK Travel is one of the market leaders in the Netherlands in Marine Travel, Government Travel, and Business Travel. Founded in 1947, VCK Travel was the first in the Netherlands to obtain the IATA license.<\/p>\n

In addition to being a trusted partner in corporate travel, VCK Travel is also a leading player in crew changes for the maritime, offshore, and energy sectors. Thanks to its decades of experience and being the largest provider in these sectors, VCK Travel ensured that its clients’ operations could continue during lockdowns, minimising the impact as much as possible.<\/p>\n

VCK Travel is an open culture company with honest and clear communication to both clients and employees. Transparency and integrity in their approach take precedence, with The Personal Touch serving as the foundation. VCK Travel always aims to provide tailor-made services, which is the guiding principle within the organisation, both internally and externally. VCK Travel distinguishes itself through a personal and transparent approach in its client relationships.<\/p>\n

The company consistently implements innovative techniques to better serve its clients. In addition to ISO certifications 9001 and 14001 for quality and environmental standards, VCK Travel is the only company in the Netherlands to hold both ISO 27001 and 27701 certifications, emphasizing the paramount importance the company places on data security and privacy.<\/p>\n

Business morality<\/h6>\n

VCK Travel add a personal note to everything they do. They continuously adjust their service provision to their clients\u2019 operational and financial preferences. This also explains why VCK Travel has chosen to work from regional offices throughout the Netherlands. Rather than consolidating our services from one head office \u2013 which is the way most TMCs operate \u2013 VCK have deliberately chosen to be closer to our clients.<\/p>\n
