Board Change
Hostelworld, the world's leading hostel-focused online booking
platform, announces that Mari Hurley has informed the Board of her
intention to resign as Chief Financial Officer to pursue a new
opportunity outside the Group. Mari will leave Hostelworld during
the first half of 2018, at a date to be confirmed.
The search for a new Chief Financial Officer is underway and a
further announcement will be made in due course.
Feargal Mooney, Chief Executive Officer, commented:
"The Board is very grateful to Mari for her significant
contribution to Hostelworld over many years with the Group. She has
played a major role during a period that has seen much successful
change and growth for Hostelworld, including the Company's joint
listing on the London Stock Exchange and Irish Stock Exchange in
2015. The Board wishes Mari well for the future and I look forward
to continuing to work with her over the coming months as we appoint
a successor."
Mari Hurley, Chief Financial Officer, commented:
"After over 10 years with Hostelworld it is time for me to
pursue a new opportunity. The business has travelled a great
distance since I joined and is very well positioned to make further
strong progress in its international markets. I look forward to
continuing in my current role over the coming months and I wish
Feargal, my other Board colleagues and everyone at the Group well
for the future."
The Board confirms that it anticipates that the Group's results
for the year ended 31 December 2017 will be in line with its
expectations. Hostelworld intends to release its pre-close trading
update on 24 January 2018.
