NewBook, a campground management and booking software provider with over 50,000 users, today announced the appointment of Rory Fagan as the vice president of its North America team.
NewBook CEO Shaun Cornelius welcomed the new vice president to the team, noting Fagan has stepped in to help drive the business’ growth in the United States and Canada.
“It’s great to have someone with Rory’s technology, sales and hospitality knowledge, and experience join the NewBook Leadership Team and lead our [American] business through the next period of growth,” he said.
According to a release, Fagan joins the company with extensive experience in the industry, coming from Oracle before he entered NewBook. He also led sales for casinos and hotels at Duetto in addition to carrying critical leadership and sales management positions with travel providers and travel technology companies such as SAS Institute, United Airlines, Hertz, and Sabre Hotel Solutions.
The newly-appointed vice president of the campground management software provider was delighted to join the business, saying, “NewBook is a real success story, and I’m excited to be joining such a passionate team and working in partnership with clients that love and embrace the NewBook product.”
NewBook continues to expand its team by recently hiring Angela Harness and Blake Burris. Harness joined NewBook in August from FARVC and continues to build on a two-decade career in the tourism industry. Joining the company last month was Burris who came from reservation management software provider, RoverPass. NewBook plans to continue to grow its North American unit to support the growing demand for its product in the region.
These fundamental appointments are a result of NewBook’s rapid growth in the North American outdoor hospitality industry, revolutionizing the way campgrounds operate with innovative technology. According to the release, NewBook has seen a 502% of growth since it entered the market in late 2020. The company founded in 2010 has climbed over the past 11 years into a global market leader with three international offices. In 2018, NewBook launched in the United States.
“We have an amazing opportunity in front of us,” said CEO Cornelius. “North America is a key growth opportunity for NewBook, and we’re excited to establish an experienced team to help foster innovation, operational efficiency, and profitability for campgrounds across the country.”
