According to Carlson Wagonlit,the company is also adapting to the ways in which travellers use technology within business travel and is finding that IT is a crucial component of driving innovation.

"The industry is going through a big evolutionary step with IT not only playing a key role in integrating and automating the many global systems and processes more effectively,but where the innovative and carefully targeted application of technology can and will create clear differentiation between the major players'offerings to their clients,"O'Connor said.

"It is a great opportunity to be part of this market-leading company as it applies the best technologies and practices"
