Kura, the Maidenhead-based business transport specialist, has appointed Luke Garcia as its new Head of Corporate Sales.

Luke will be charged with securing new business and long-term contracts for corporate shuttle services, with a focus on organisations targeting blue collar workers in specific industry sectors and Kura’s existing customer base.

He joins from Addison Lee, the taxi and courier company, where he worked for five years with commercial clients across the UK, other parts of Europe, the US and Asia. He has experience in sales in the travel, logistics and supply chain industries.

Luke said: “The head of sales role was a highly appealing opportunity and the perfect next challenge. Kura is a fresh, yet experienced, business with a strong concept and ethos, and I look forward to working with the talented team to deliver against the goals that have been set for us.”

Godfrey Ryan, CEO of Kura, said: “Luke’s appointment comes at an exciting time for both the business and the corporate shuttle market, as organisations ramp up the support and duty of care they provide to employees in a bid to make roles more attractive.

“The experience and direction Luke brings to the team is invaluable and we’re delighted to have him on-board for the next stage of our growth journey.”
