On Monday 3rd July, TTG, one of the leading travel industry publications, announced its top 30 Under 30 for experts in the travel industry in 2023. The listing which is sponsored by TUI, named Xeinadin’s Alex Wall amongst those recognised.
Drawn from across the industry, Alex stands amongst young achievers from travel businesses large and small and showcasing a wide range of specialisms from sales and marketing to accountancy, and from product management to sustainability and accessible travel.
Picked from out of more than 100 nominations and entries from across the travel industry, a judging panel of Richard Sofer, Tui’s commercial business development director, and Claire Steiner, director of education at ITT, created the short list of recognised talent. The panel was chaired by TTG Media’s CEO Daniel Pearce and also featured two former members of the TTG 30 Under 30 – Ally Ware from Charitable Travel and Royal Caribbean’s Megan Smith, alongside TTG Media managing director Matt Roclawski, features editor Katherine Masters and customer success manager Angie Jackson.
Alex is a Senior Manager at Xeinadin firm Elman Wall and has been with the firm since 2017. Alex was recently awarded his practising certificate by the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales, he is now working towards his responsible individual status, which will allow him to sign audit reports in his own name.
Elman Wall is a leading travel industry specialist which has been specialising in the sector for over 25 years. It has well over 200 travel and tourism focused clients ranging from large international groups to independent travel specialists covering almost every niche and destination within the sector. Elman Wall is an expert in the travel sector providing a full suite of audit, accounting and tax services and tailored advice on travel regulations, TOMS and VAT, travel sector M&A and ABTA/ATOL reporting to its clients.
Alex was nominated by Elman Wall’s Karen Gill who said: “As one of very few accountants specialising in the travel sector, Alex will learn huge amounts through being part of the 30 Under 30, which would be invaluable as an advisor. He will form lasting relationships with his cohort, benefitting both himself and hopefully his peer group for years to come.”
Alex Wall said: “I am thrilled to be recognised as one of TTG’s 30 Under 30. This is a talented group and it is great to be recognised for the work I do and potential I have. This also highlights the experience and expertise I’ve gained working at Elman Wall, which I plan to continue to grow in my future career.”
