GOLD COAST, AUSTRALIA (MAY 6, 2022): Wyndham Destinations Asia Pacific’s Legal Team has been recognised as the best legal team in the global timeshare industry at the American Resort Development Association (ARDA) Awards.

The team – domiciled in the company’s offices in Singapore; Shanghai, China; and the Gold Coast, Australia – won the Legal and Regulatory Manager, Team Member or Team category at the ceremony, held yesterday at the Diplomat Hotel in Florida, USA.

“We are a multi-faceted, international company operating vacation clubs, managed hotels, corporate offices and service centres, and providing consumer lending within multiple Asia Pacific markets, all with their own regulatory complexities,” said Liz Collinson, Senior Vice President of Legal and Compliance. 

“In the last two years, the team has had the additional task of ensuring our operations have been compliant with the constantly changing COVID-19 restrictions. Our team members also regularly support our industry by providing expertise to industry bodies, attending government working groups and meeting with regulators, all while taking leadership roles within our business supporting our charitable arm, diversity resource group and our regional Women in Travel chapter.

“I am immensely proud that our team has been recognised for their technical expertise, can-do attitude and their solutions-oriented approach to providing the best outcomes for internal stakeholders and business customers,” Ms Collinson added.
