G Adventures is strengthening its Australia trade engagement with the appointment of Georgia Nankivell as Global Purpose Specialist for Victoria and Tasmania. The move places greater emphasis on agency relationships, product support, sales and marketing across two important Australian markets.

Having joined the company in 2023, Nankivell has progressed through three sales roles in three years, most recently working as a National Geographic Signature Specialist. Her new position will see closer support provided to travel agency partners across Victoria and Tasmania. The appointment reflects continued internal career development and reinforces G Adventures’ focus on building meaningful, long-term travel trade relationships.

New Specialist Role Strengthens G Adventures Support Across Australia

A new phase of trade engagement has been opened for G Adventures in Australia through Nankivell’s appointment. The Global Purpose Specialist position will be focused on Victoria and Tasmania, where agency partners will be supported with product, sales and marketing activity. That support will place the specialist in direct contact with travel agencies operating across both states.

The role is centred on strengthening relationships with partners that sell and promote G Adventures products. Product knowledge will form part of the support provided, while sales and marketing assistance will also be delivered. This creates a clear link between the company’s internal expertise and the travel trade partners responsible for connecting customers with its trips.

Victoria and Tasmania will therefore become the immediate focus of Nankivell’s work. Her responsibilities will be directed towards maintaining productive agency relationships and sharing experience gained through several positions within G Adventures. The appointment has been presented by the company as a progression built on professional development, resilience and a willingness to take on new opportunities.

Career Progression Builds Experience for Victoria and Tasmania Travel Trade

Nankivell’s career with G Adventures began in 2023, when she joined as a Global Connection Officer. Since then, three sales roles have been held within a three-year period, giving her experience across different areas of the company’s commercial operations.

Before the latest appointment, she served as a National Geographic Signature Specialist. That position became the most recent stage in a progression that has now led to responsibility for agency engagement across Victoria and Tasmania.

Her move has been described by G Adventures as the next step in a career shaped by opportunity, skills development and relationship building. Curiosity, ambition and resilience were highlighted by the company as qualities associated with her work. Her willingness to challenge herself and take advantage of opportunities was also identified as an important part of that progression.

This internal career path means that experience gained with the G Adventures brand will now be applied more directly to Australia’s travel trade network. Rather than entering the role from outside the organisation, the new specialist brings several years of familiarity with its products, sales activity and partner-facing work.

G Adventures said the appointment was welcomed because Nankivell had demonstrated a genuine desire to bring people with her while developing in the business. Her progression was presented as evidence of her readiness to challenge herself, pursue opportunities and make use of each career step. That background will now be carried into work with agency partners throughout Victoria and Tasmania, supported directly by her brand experience and sales knowledge.

Agency Relationships Placed at Centre of New Travel Position

Agency relationships are set to sit at the centre of the new position. Across Victoria and Tasmania, travel partners will be assisted with product information as well as sales and marketing support. The role is therefore designed to combine commercial assistance with longer-term relationship development.

Nankivell has indicated that building meaningful and lasting connections with agency partners will be a priority. Traveller stories and her experience with the G Adventures brand are also expected to be shared with trusted partners as part of that engagement.

For agencies, the appointment provides a designated specialist whose work will be concentrated on the two Australian states. The structure allows support to be delivered with a specific geographic focus, while communication with G Adventures can be maintained through a representative familiar with the company’s products and commercial approach.

The Victoria and Tasmania remit also places travel trade collaboration at the heart of the appointment. By combining product, sales and marketing responsibilities, the position is intended to support agencies across several parts of their relationship with G Adventures rather than concentrating on a single commercial function.

Conclusion

The appointment of Georgia Nankivell as Global Purpose Specialist represents another step in G Adventures’ Australia trade development across Victoria and Tasmania. Her progression from Global Connection Officer through three sales roles demonstrates the experience she has accumulated since joining the company in 2023.

In the new position, agency partners will be supported across product knowledge, sales and marketing, while stronger long-term relationships are expected to remain central to the role. For G Adventures Australia, the appointment strengthens its engagement with travel partners in Victoria and Tasmania and places experienced brand knowledge closer to agencies serving travellers across these markets.
