DENVER, CO (PRWEB) February 17, 2004 --A group of well connected travel executives have created the travel industrys first executive-centric career site, featuring the Travel Executive Employment ReportTM , that highlights executive level job openings, compelling articles and networking opportunities. The service also provides free access for human resource professionals and other hiring managers who need to 'get the word out to a qualified pool of travel and hotel industry executives.

Though the site just completed its soft-launch in January, already top companies and travel executives are utilizing the unique service. As travel executives, we were flabbergasted that travel related companies had Director and V.P. positions unfilled after 6 months while unemployment rates were relatively high. At the same time, the travel industry is entering a renaissance phase with record growth expected in many sectors as baby boomers indulge their life long travel expectations. This trend, coupled with the fact that the travel and hotel industry tends to be fragmented and compartmentalized, created the need and opportunity for such a service as Travel Career Connexxions," said the companys President, Matt Garton. We believe executives should manage their careers at least as well as they manage their businesses. They should build on their successes, with growth in mind, and our service will help them do just that."

For a small monthly fee executives gain access to executive level job openings; salary surveys; access to networking connectors"; and monthly articles which focus on career growth opportunities in eight travel industry sectors including Hotels, Technology, Air, Cruise, Tours, Agents, Car Rentals, and Convention and Visitor Bureaus.

According to Cindy Elenbaas, V.P. of Navigant Vacations, the articles are an easy read, finally a positive communication in our industry backed up with facts and figures." In addition, later this month, Travel Career Connexxions will launch its free newsletter aptly named, OpportunitiesTM."

Discounts for executives considering the Travel Career Connexxions service are available through the companys sponsors site, Travel Commerce Expo. Travel Commerce Expo site visitors receive 20% off all Travel Career Connexxions subscriptions.

For Human Resource professionals, it is free to list job openings in the system. The companys business model is a reversal of the typical pay-for listing service. Those responsible for staff should sign up for a free account, even if they do not currently have executive positions or consulting jobs available, so that they may be included in the upcoming salary survey free of charge.
