Two prominent Canadian travel industry figures are on the move with the appointments of Justin Gosling as Director Canada at Discover the World, replacing Jane Clementino, who left the position to join TRAVELSAVERS as Sr. VP. and GM Canada.

Clementino’s new role takes effect Sept. 6. An accomplished sales and marketing expert spanning aviation, corporate and retail travel with more than 30 years experience, she notably held recent roles and WestJet/WestJet Vacations and was previously VP of Sales and Account Management at Navigant/CWT Canada.

Clementino will oversee business development, sales, and the day-to-day operations of the TRAVELSAVERS’ Canadian team in addition to managing the strategic partnership duties from Cathie Lewis Hardy, who is retiring after 20 years with the company.

Working from the Toronto office, Clementino will oversee TRAVELSAVERS’ Canadian team of business analysts, regional business development directors and director of strategic partnerships.

TRAVELSAVERS is an international travel marketing organization with a retail chain of more than 2,500 independently owned, full-service travel agencies that together generate more than $20 billion in annual travel sales across the US and Canada.

DISCOVER THE WORLD

Prior to his appointment at Discover the World, Gosling boasted over 30 years of experience in the travel industry, most recently as Canadian Director for SkyBird Travel & Tours. Other positions have included Country Manager for Alitalia; Regional Manager for Etihad Airways in Canada, Great Britain, Scotland, and the Seychelles Islands; and USA Director of Leisure Sales for Lufthansa.

Discover the World is a global sales representation organization with a worldwide network of 85 offices in more than 60 countries and a portfolio of over 100 clients.

Discover the World CEO Ian Murray said, “This is an exciting time of change and expansion for Discover as the industry bounces back from the pandemic. Justin is a great addition to the team. Along with his understanding of the global market, he brings a creative vision, longstanding relationships and passion that is in line with the goals that Discover has for its future.”

Murray also thanked the outgoing Clementino for “her positive and progressive contributions to the business, locally and globally especially during an extremely challenging period in the travel industry. “
