Henrik Kjellberg, voormalig directeur bij Expedia, werd eerder dit jaar benoemd tot group chief executive voor het bedrijf European Vacation Rentals, dat is overgenomen door Platinum Equity van Wyndham Worldwide.

Als marktleider is het bedrijf, de grootste beheerder van vakantiewoningen in Europa, actief op meer dan 600 bestemmingen in meer dan 25 landen via zijn lokale merken, waaronder Landal GreenParks, Novasol, Cottages.com, Hoseasons, James Villa Holidays en Friendly Rentals. Deze benoeming, met onmiddellijke ingang, komt op een belangrijk moment terwijl het bedrijf begint aan de volgende fase van zijn groeitraject, met grote investeringen in technologische innovatie.

De activiteiten van European Vacation Rentals ondergaan in de komende maanden een rebranding om de identiteit van de groep opnieuw te definiëren. Daarnaast blijft het bedrijf investeren in de bestaande consumentenmerken.

Kjellberg werkt al meer dan twintig jaar in wereldwijde functies voor reis- en technologiemerken, waaronder als directeur van Hotwire en van het partnernetwerk van Expedia Group (EAN), waar hij verantwoordelijk was voor de wereldwijde affiliate- en partnerschapsovereenkomsten van de Expedia Group. Kjellberg was ook directeur van Expedia Asia en voorzitter van het Chinese reisbedrijf eLong Inc.

Henrik Kjellberg zegt: "Ik heb altijd bewondering gehad voor het succes van European Vacation Rentals, dat is opgericht door de Wyndham Worldwide Corporation. De groep en zijn lokale merken hebben een lange traditie in het leveren van ongeëvenaarde ervaringen in heel Europa.   

"Ik kijk ernaar uit samen te werken met de leiderschapsteams onder het nieuwe eigenaarschap en binnen elk van de merken om te profiteren van ons succes tot nu toe en van de enorme groeimogelijkheden die voor ons liggen. Maar ook om het soort ervaringen en services te blijven leveren, dat onze gasten, huiseigenaren en partners gewend zijn van onze merken."   

Daniel Madden, directeur en hoofd van de portfolio-activiteiten bij Platinum Equity in Europa zegt : "Henrik heeft onder andere waardevolle ervaring op het gebied van producten, technologie, klant- en partnerdiensten, innovatie en distributie. Als belegger ondersteunen we de organische en acquisitieve groeiambities van het bedrijf, en we kijken we ernaar uit met Henrik samen te werken."
