VISIT JERSEY has announced that its chief executive will leave the company in December.
Amanda Burns will return to the UK at the end of the year and pursue another career opportunity.
Commenting on her forthcoming departure, she said: ‘This has been a difficult decision to make. I have loved the job and working with a fantastic team at Visit Jersey and I’ve appreciated the support from the board during my time. We have accomplished a lot together, focusing on our response to the pandemic and developing a marketing strategy to drive demand for the future.’
Lisa Springate, the chair of Visit Jersey, added: ‘On behalf of the board, I would like to thank Amanda for her commitment and marketing vision over two extremely challenging years for the industry. We entirely understand her personal reasons for deciding to return to the UK and wish her all the best with her new role.’
Visit Jersey’s board has advised the Appointments Commission and the recruitment process for her replacement will commence immediately.
