Ilka Wymar Becomes Commercial Director at KITICON Global Networks

With her technical understanding and solution-oriented way of thinking, Wymar will accompany the digital transformation for the agency's tourism clients. Her expertise is required in topics such as booking technologies, user experience & conversion optimization, as well as transition to accessible websites. In addition, her extensive experience in marketing and online sales will further strengthen KITICON Global Networks' offering.

“We are delighted to welcome Ilka Wymar to our team as an experienced tourism expert and at the same time as a creative and open personality. With her experience, KITICON can significantly expand its portfolio once again” says Managing Director Tina Kirfel. “Thanks to her extensive industry contacts and her e-commerce expertise, she bridges the gap between sales and technology - a win-win situation both for our team and our customers.”

Ilka Wymar has extensive experience in the industry. She began her career as a travel agent, after which she worked in online sales and travel consulting. One of her stations was the online portal ebookers.com, where she gained extensive knowledge in marketing, sales, interface management and booking systems over ten years as Head of Product and Content Management DACH. From 2012 to 2021, she supported small and medium-sized companies and travel agencies as an independent consultant in the digitalization and development of new marketing and sales concepts. She also worked at AMONDO for around 9 years as an e-commerce manager and sales manager. Kirfel and Wymar both have many years of expertise in the cruise market and have already worked closely together in recent months on the development of a cruise portal.

“I'm looking forward to bringing my expertise to KITICON and rounding off the agency's portfolio. With my passion for UX, booking technologies and data quality, we can open up new perspectives for our clients and shape the digital transformation together.”
