EXPLORE!

Meet the Team

We are a company of travellers. The Explore family extends to tour leaders, ground agents, guides and support crew making us truly international. We thought it would be nice for you to meet just a few of us who are based at our Head Office, in Farnborough, Hampshire. 

    Fiona PearcyCommercial Manager

I have worked at Explore for just over 8 years and in my capacity as Commercial Manager I primarily manage, support and develop sales amongst the trade in the UK, internationally and through third parties online.
I am a bit of an Adventure Travel junkie having travelled extensively & worked in the industry for more than 20 years. My passions are all things outdoors, trekking, mountain biking, skiing and the odd marathon. 
     

Alex Meldrum - Adventure Travel Consultant

Now into my third year at Explore I have developed a real passion for adventure travel. I have taken trips in and around Asia, North Africa and Europe. One of the best things I have found is that travelling in a small group with like minded customers has allowed me to establish some great friendships along the way.
     
    Anthony Jay - Adventure Travel Consultant

I have been at Explore for nearly 8 years now. I love Explore because it sells a product which I love and strongly believe in and I want to contribute towards the growing success of a leading adventure tour company. I have a passion for travel and am hooked on taking our trips for all my own personal holiday in addition to the traininig trips we get.
     
     
    Margaret McEwan - Head of Governance and Customer Relations

I joined Explore back in 1986 and so have seen a lot during her 25 years. I have fended off leeches in the Malaysian jungle, been sick in Nepal, put my back out in Egypt and had an argument with a mule in Andalucía. Heading up our Customer Relations department for over 10 years I fully understand our customers’ expectations and I am keen to deliver first class service that has our customers coming back for more. 
     
    Jo Rolls - Senior Operations Manager

After 4 1/2 years on the road as a tour leader, I came into the office to the Operations department. I was lucky enough to lead tours all over the world including China, Kenya, North America, Poland and Jordan – to name a few! As Senior Operations Manager, for South America, Greece and Turkey I have responsibility for all tour leader training, retraining and recruitment. I love to travel, especially to places with breathtaking scenery both on land and underwater as trekking and diving are my two favourite passtimes – something that Explore has given me multiple opportunities to take part in and share with other people.
