Incentivise was born from the perfect blend of ambition and a vision to do things bigger and better. We are a team of creative event planners, corporate travel specialists, golf experts and world wanderers.
Founded in 2002 by three individuals that love events and travel, we’ve been a name to rely on ever since – whether our clients are looking for once-in-a-lifetime incentive trips, inspirational conference locations or enticing reward packages.
We are an agency that you can trust, but don’t just take our word for it! Time after time, our clients have been thrilled with the events we’ve pulled off and the dedication that has gone into planning them. Not only are we proud of the amazing experiences that we make possible for various businesses, but we’re also thrilled to be such a knowledgeable, creative and genuine bunch of travel, event and golf fanatics.

An organisation is only as good as its people – and luckily, we boast a group of creatives, perfectionists and all-round whizzes. Don’t believe us? Browse our profiles below.
JOHN ATKINSCo-founder/DirectorThanks to 35 years in the industry, John is thrilled to be gradually ticking off his “visit list”. If he’s not overseeing Incentivise’s main events, you’ll probably find him nurturing his competitive streak on the golf course.
JANE ATKINSCo-founder/Financial DirectorAn advocate for a clean desk (less than 100 emails in her inbox) and a clean mind (yoga), ever-professional and committed Jane is Incentivise’s go-to person for finance and all things operational.
PHIL JONESCo-founder/DirectorBusiness-minded, dedicated and a great motivator, Phil loves seeing Incentivise’s customers enjoy once in a lifetime experiences. Having lived and studied in France, his bi-lingual skills come in handy too!
ANDREA KELLYHead of Events & RewardsAlways on call to ensure things run smoothly, Andrea is a natural when it comes to event management. Although 9 til 5 doesn’t exist in her schedule, she’s still a lover of Dolly Parton (and Country and Motown music in general).
ANDY BRERETONFinancial Controller
LIZ MOLYNEUXHead of Corporate TravelConscientious, loyal and a ballroom dancer when she was younger, Liz knows all the right steps to take to ensure Incentivise’s corporate travel customers are happy. Her hard-working nature is put to good practice with her new Cockapoo puppy too!
GARETH HEYGolf ManagerThe go-to man for organising inspirational trips on the world’s best golf courses, Gareth has previously lived and worked at China’s Mission Hills resort. It’s perhaps no surprise that his role in the events team suits him (and our clients) down to a tee.
HANNAH HOWSONEvent ManagerHannah has a flair for co-ordination, liaising with clients and prosecco drinking. A self-declared binge watcher of American TV, her Incentivise highlight so far has been visiting New York and watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving parade.
WILL JONESEvent ManagerCounted on for his co-ordination and joking abilities, Will is also a firm believer that a post-work drink is the perfect tonic to a productive day – so much so that he’s the co-founder of a gin company.
ASHLEIGH SLOANEvent ExecutiveAs a classical singer, the perfectly co-ordinated event is music to Ashleigh’s ears. When she’s not creating inspirational proposals or booking amazing venues, she’ll probably be found reviewing the next restaurant for her food blog.
HANNAH ATKINSLoyalty & Rewards ExecutiveA qualified ski instructor, ambitious and gregarious Hannah helps to moves mountains when it comes to bespoke incentive packages and trips. Whether she’s in the office or on the slopes, she loves that every day at Incentivise is different.
ELLA FRYLoyalty & Rewards Event ManagerOrganised, fun and approachable, Ella thrives in her role in the Rewards department. As well as loving the amazing places and hotels she gets to visit, Ella is a family-loving gal who can also carry a tune – and not just when she’s in the shower!
IONA PURVISJunior Graphic DesignerA shot-put champion when she was younger, Iona now goes the extra distance when it comes to all things creative. When she’s not conjuring up fabulous branded materials, you might spot her heading to a gig or making her latest vinyl “disk-covery” in a record shop.
SCOTT OWENCorporate Travel ManagerA lover of a to-do list, reliable Scott has a knack for making travel arrangements – so much so that he got married in New York’s Central Park. He also enjoys putting himself through the pain of supporting Everton FC (his words, not ours).
KATIE O'CONNORCorporate Travel ManagerHaving previously worked on cruise ships, professional, personable and super-organised Katie helps to keep the corporate travel team afloat – thanks to her working hard to meet client’s travel and meeting requirements.
KATIE HOUGHFinance AdministratorWith a degree in business management, quick-learner Katie is always determined to learn new skills and keep on top of her workload. Travelling to new countries or relaxing on long walks are her perfect antidotes to office life.
LAURA KELSALLOffice ManagerWhen she’s not looking after the office or her six-year-old, multi-tasking expert Laura will either be socialising with friends and family or training for her next charity run. Incentivise highlight so far: moving to The Barns!
SONYA NICHOLLSFinance AdministratorA great listener who you’ll rarely see without a smile, Sonya is an air of calm – especially on busy days in the accounts team. Outside of work she’ll either be with her family or attending evening college courses.
JULIE ARGENTFinance AssistantLoving the views from either her motorbike or office window, Julie is a helpful and reliable member of the team. She once got to the top of Mont Blanc – and then drove through it to get a pizza!
SUSAN BENNETTSenior Finance AssistantPleased that her geography has improved since working with Incentivise, Susan is fun, organised and glad that no day is the same in the office. A lover of walking, she’s currently training for the 34-mile Sandstone Trail.
POLLY HATTONFinance AssistantOutgoing and honest, Polly maintains fantastic relationships with colleagues and clients alike. Her downtime is spent being active and listening to live music (especially her son). Fun fact: she passed her motorbike test when she was 50.
NATHAN HOLLANDWeb DeveloperAn easy-going techie with a knack for writing code, Nathan thrives in building and maintaining Incentivise’s digital identity. When he’s not enjoying the fresh air at The Barns, you may find him gaming or following the Warrington Wolves.
