Simon Harper returns to Pinnacle Tours and the Adventure Tours Australia Group

Adventure Tours Australia is pleased to announce the appointment of Simon Harper to the role of WA Business Manager.

Simon is well known throughout the tourism industry, having worked for ATA sister companies Pinnacle Tours and WesternXposure. He left his role as Pinnacle Tours Australia/NZ Sales Manager in 2008 to take on a leadership, business development and strategic role in a large chain in another industry.

ATA Managing Director Ken Hart says Simon's appointment as WA Business Manager is a coup.

"Simon was the ideal candidate as he knows the company, has previously worked with many of the team and brings a wealth of experience in leadership and business development that perfectly match the criteria for this position," Ken says.

"Simon has already made his stamp on the business. ATAG management and the team in WA are excited about the opportunities Simon's leadership has already opened."

Simon has maintained his very strong contacts within the tourism industry and is eager to be involved in the industry again.

"I've maintained a lot of my relationships within the tourism industry and am looking forward to working with my industry colleagues, both old and new," Simon says.
