Tourism leader ‘excited’
DOUGLAS Shire has a new Tourism Port Douglas Daintree (TPPD) boss.
Emma Tunnock (above) is the new executive officer who takes over from Glen Hingley, who resigned after six months in May due to family reasons.
TPDD chairman Cam Charlton said Ms Tunnock had an extensive background in marketing, tourism and economic development.
Most recently, she served as the tourism and economic development officer at Douglas Shire Council, where she executed the economic development program and worked closely with Tourism Port Douglas Daintree to support the organisation’s strategic objectives, he said.
Ms Tunnock said she was excited to join Tourism Port Douglas Daintree and build on the work being carried out by the team.
“This region holds immense potential, and I am committed to fostering strong collaborations and driving sustainable growth in our tourism industry,” she said.
