Anna Nash has joined Explora Journeys as President of the MSC Group brand.
She reports directly to Pierfrancesco Vago, Executive Chairman, MSC Group’s Cruise Division.
Nash’s career spans over two decades within leading ultra-luxury hospitality brands.
Most recently, she served as CCO at Aman, where she played a pivotal role in shaping the company’s global commercial strategies and brand expansion.
During her 10 year tenure with the company, she also held the position of Chief Marketing Officer and Chief Communications Officer.
She brings a wealth of experience in global sales, brand development, marketing, digital, PR, communication, and business intelligence to this newly created position, having also worked at Rosewood Hotels and Orient-Express, before joining Aman in 2014.
Vago said, “We are delighted to welcome Anna to Explora Journeys where her proven expertise within the ultra-luxury hospitality industry, coupled with her exceptional leadership abilities will help us to ensure that our brand is globally recognised as we continue to set new standards in luxury travel.”

The brand’s dedication to redefining the luxury ocean travel experience is inspiring, and I look forward to working closely with Mr Vago and the talented team to continue building on this vision. Together, we will strive to create unforgettable journeys that resonate with discerning travellers around the world.”
In her new role as President, she will be responsible for driving Explora Journey’s strategic vision and growth initiatives, as the brand continues to redefine the landscape of luxury ocean travel.
Her extensive experience and leadership will be critical as Explora Journeys prepares to expand its fleet with the launch of ‘Explora II’, the second luxury ship in the brand’s fleet, to be followed by four more ships, due to enter service from 2026 to 2028.
