The Team

Eleanor Milner

Director

Eleanor has over 25 years’ experience working in the travel industry. Her career began in London, in the marketing department of Swan Hellenic Cruises (P&O), after which she moved to Cox & Kings UK to take on the role of Business Development Manager. Seven years later, Eleanor relocated to Edinburgh to work as Head of European Sales and Marketing at Cox & Kings India and then, after three years, joined Dream Escape, a high-end incoming Destination Management Company for Scotland, as Head of Marketing.

In early 2013, Eleanor moved to Sri Lanka with her young daughter and began working as Head of Marketing for a high-end inbound DMC who were based in Colombo. In June 2014, Eleanor moved back to Edinburgh and set up The Sri Lanka Collection.

Through work and for pleasure, Eleanor has been lucky enough to have travelled extensively throughout Sri Lanka and across Asia. She continues to visit Sri Lanka once or twice most years, often leading groups of Tour Operators and Travel Agents.
