Cheapflights has promoted Shahin Fard to head of online marketing and global search engine optimisation (SEO). Fard was previously online marketing manager.

Shah will report to commercial director, Rob Passmore, and will co-ordinate closely with Andrew Canellos, director of marketing in the company’s US operational hub in Boston.

In his expanded role, Shah will be responsible for Global SEO (UK and US), and the management of all on-line marketing activity for the UK business, including SEO, PPC (Pay per Click), affiliate marketing, online advertising and syndication.

Chris Cuddy, Cheapflights’ group managing director said that in the four plus years that Shah has been with Cheapflights, his responsibilities and impact on the business have grown materially. “This promotion recognises his notable contribution, his inspirational attitude, and the significance of traffic generation to Cheapflights’ future,” said Cuddy.
