My guest this week is Denis Wormwell, CEO of Wigan based Shearings Holidays.

Denis joined Shearings from National Express in Autumn 2007, where he was in charge of the bus division. He’s also recently unveiled plans to grow the coach and holidays company into a £225 million turnover enterprise within three years.

In this interview, Denis gives us an overview of the business as it is today and shares some of his thoughts on how Shearings is looking to reposition itself as more than just a coach operator.
