WHY IT RATES: Sulek is expected to bring a fresh perspective to the company as it looks to build on its success.—Patrick Clarke, TravelPulse Senior Editor
Jetset World Travel is excited to announce the appointment of Jeremy Sulek as its new Chief Executive Officer, effective November 1, 2024. Sulek will be transitioning from his role as Chief Operating Officer and taking over from Lindsey Epperly, founder and current CEO. Epperly will continue with the company as Chairwoman of the Board, focusing on high-level strategic advising and guiding Jetset’s future vision.
Reflecting on the company’s journey, Epperly shared her thoughts on this milestone moment: “Ten years ago, Jetset World Travel was born from my personal rock bottom, a time when I no longer believed in my own value. This company saved my life, and it has grown into something far beyond what I could have imagined. Today, it’s time for Jetset to level up, and I know Jeremy is the right leader to bring a fresh perspective while staying true to our core values. This decision comes with deep intentionality, and I couldn’t be more excited to watch him take this company into its next phase of success.”
During her tenure, Epperly led Jetset through key moments of growth, including the acquisition and rebranding of Jetset four years ago, navigating the pandemic with the community-focused project Nourish, and seeing the company make the prestigious Inc. 5000 list for two consecutive years. Now, Epperly is transitioning to a behind-the-scenes role, advising the company while continuing her journey of purpose and reflection.
Jeremy Sulek, who has been with the company as COO and played a critical role in its operations, expressed his excitement about stepping into the CEO role: “I am incredibly honored to build upon the foundation that Lindsey has laid. Her leadership has created something remarkable, and I am committed to driving Jetset’s ongoing success and progress. I am excited to steward this company into its next chapter by continually putting the needs of our advisors first, fostering meaningful relationships with our partners, and ensuring exceptional service to our end travelers. Together, we will keep evolving and shaping the luxury travel industry while staying true to the heart of what Jetset has always represented.”
With this leadership transition, Jetset World Travel reaffirms its commitment to its advisors, clients, and partners, ensuring that the company remains at the forefront of innovation and service in the travel industry. The leadership change reflects Jetset’s dedication to sustainability, growth, and an unwavering belief in the value the company adds to its clients’ lives.
