Bio
Carla Da Silva
Johann and I worked together for many years in his senior leadership roles at Thompsons and at World Leisure Holidays. He is a true gentleman when negotiating, discussing commercial contracting and performances. He is analytical, precise, transparent and committed to the business objectives. He lead a team who embraced his warmth, supportive approach and excellent leadership style. Johann is a man of integrity and values relationships and business excellence.

I had the pleasure of working with Johann when he recruited me for my current position. Johann had all the time during the process presented himself professionally. He has the art of balancing the clients need and the needs of the candidate. I find Johann to be very engaging, trustworthy, and dependable. He goes beyond just recruiting and placing professionals to a job. In my first 120 days he continued to help me cope with the dynamics of setting in my new job. I can say, without hesitation, that he has exceeded my expectations and I will continue to use his professional services. I highly recommend Johann and his professional recruitment services. He is an astute professional in his own right and does an excellent job matching company needs to a professional’s desires.

Marketing, distributing and selling up-market beach resorts. World Leisure Holiday's (WLH) core product is the hotels owned by Sun LTD in Mauritius. Resorts are well known all over the world. In Mauritius they are Long Beach 5*, Ambre 4*, La Pirogue 4* and Sugar Beach 5*. In Maldives we own Kanuhura 5*. The company carefully and discerningly added to this portfolio in Mauritius to expand the offering to inter alia include well selected 3* hotels. WLH's portfolio extends into the Indian Ocean adding destinations like Seychelles, Zanzibar, Mozambique and Reunion. The company sustains its client base through good service both when travel is booked and when on holidaying on one of our packages. WLH also noted that people stayed for longer in Dubai and offer this destination and Abu Dhabi. We work through travel agents in Southern Africa. Approach your preferred travel agent and ask for a World Leisure Holiday. Brochures available at travel agencies.
