Paul Rose
Managing Director of “Paul Rose Revenue Management Limited”

Richard Branson head-hunted Paul in 1994 as Head of Revenue Management & Pricing at Virgin Atlantic to create their RM department requiring the selection and implementation of their first RMS.

This ran for over twenty years with membership exceeding 100 aviation organisations with over 600 members as an increasing number of airlines discovered the financial benefits of Revenue Integrity.
