CVFR structures for growth

CVFR Travel Group is expanding its executive ranks, today revealing details of a management restructure to deal with ongoing expansion.

CEO Ram Chhabra said the move came amid strong performance, with all divisions operating at pre-pandemic levels.

The changes include the elevation of Nidhi Nijhawan, previously Chief Operating Officer for the consolidation division to become Group COO of CVFR Travel Group, with oversight of all the business verticals.

Nijhawan has been with CVFR for more than 13 years, with a strong understanding of every part of the group, Chhabra said.

Natasha Dua has been appointed as National Manager for CVFR’s Visa Rep Services, which currently manages the Canadian Visa Application Centres across Australia, with her expanded role seeing her play a key role in growing the business and actively pursuing additional government clients.

“All our business units are in the process of expanding,” Chhabra said, with the growth also including a new Fiji office for airline representation.

“We need to ensure we have a strong management team in place that are well positioned to take advantage of the opportunities in the postpandemic world,” he said.
