SilverRail names ex-Trainline Director Brett Ring as VP of Commercial

Ring will be responsible for driving industry relationships

SilverRail, the leading rail technology company, has unveiled Brett Ring as their new vice president of commercial.

They hope the move adds further momentum at a "pivotal point" for growth, to the organisation’s mission to improve how UK TMCs market and sell rail.

Ring, who is the former global sales director of trainline, will now be driving industry relationships and supporting partners in their efforts to optimise and improve the efficiency of selling rail services.

“With the rail industry becoming increasingly central to the journeys of business travellers thanks to its cost, convenience, and environmental benefits, we have an opportunity to make rail the UK’s first-choice mode of transport," said Brett Ring, the newly appointed VP of commercial.

"SilverRail’s focus on being truly customer centric, as well as the depth of its expertise, made it an undeniably appealing opportunity."

Ring, who is the former global sales director of trainline and has over a decade's worth of travel technology sector experience, will now be driving industry relationships and supporting partners in their efforts to optimise and improve the efficiency of selling rail services. 

Cameron Jones, chief strategy and commercial officer, added: "Rail carriers, technology providers and agencies must work together to harness the digital tools that can simplify the customer journey and increase the number of people on our trains.

"Brett brings with him a wealth of knowledge and experience that will strengthen this offering, support our growing commercial team, and enable us to help even more travel management companies successfully sell rail to an ever-changing, expanding market."
