Malta-based destination management organisation Global DMC Alliance (GDA) on Thursday shared that Benji Gatt has been named CEO.
Over the years, Mr Gatt has gained various years of experience from the services sector, ranging from insurance and fast-moving consumer goods, to catering, hospitality and also the meetings, incentives, conferences and exhibitions (MICE) industry.
Prior to his latest appointment, he was Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) at Kitchen Concepts Ltd for over two years.
His experience also includes just under a year as Business Manager at Farsons Group, and more than 16 years at Vivian Corporation, working in a number of marketing-related roles.
