Personal Statement

Business travel professionals with successful experience in the SME and corporate arenas. An adaptable organisataion with a high rate of achievement and an appetite for new challenges. Dependable and reliable in supporting and enabling team effort to produce the ultimate business traveller experience from start to finish. International experience including relationships with 12 key countries overseas through developed partnerships.

We are the Corporate Travel Division of Barrhead Travel, working in partnership with our clients to provide an unbiased executive travel service geared to their own particular business travel needs.

We specialise in offering a total travel management solution – indeed we are probably one of the leading travel automation companies in the UK with a varied portfolio of satisfied clients.

Our travel management services and systems are designed to manage an organization’s travel from start to finish – online and offline, with the flexibility for total or partial integration into a company’s accounting systems. Everything is taken care of from initial business travel request through to travel policy compliance and full travel management reporting (including Carbon analysis).

However, we still believe corporate travel management is both a science and an art. A science because of the need to manage an account efficiently to justify employing a travel management company, and an art because travel is an emotive issue which needs to be handled with care, consideration and efficiency.

By understanding these two needs, we provide a highly flexible corporate travel management solution focusing on the two main drivers – cost and service.

We are truly flexible in our approach and you will find our way of doing business travel is surprisingly refreshing.
