Pascal Jungfer, Chief Executive & Founding Partner

Pascal Jungfer attracts clients and talented consultants who share both his energy and passion for blazing the new trails that spark innovation. His lifelong drive to push boundaries and his love for the dynamics of travel management gave rise to Areka, which he founded in 2011, along with three long-trusted partners. From the start, Pascal and his Areka partners set out to work with clients who were curious, imaginative and pioneering. Today, Pascal’s consultants are each a driving force in their respective markets, known for tackling complex challenges with global perspective.

Over the years, Pascal’s work has prompted him to live in France, Singapore and Gabon and to become fluent in French, English and Spanish. He spent more than a decade in management consulting with Accenture, Capgemini and Mars & Co before jumping into travel. In 2005, he joined CWT as Global Vice President of Consulting, where he launched the industry’s first consulting division for a world-leading travel management company and grew that team to exceed 100 worldwide consultants.

Charlie Bacharach, Senior Vice President of North America

Charlie Bacharach is Senior Vice President of North America, for Areka, based in New York. He has spent the last 20 years helping clients to advance their corporate travel programs by introducing new technologies, implementing innovative practices, and aligning mobility solutions to the needs of corporations and other organizations. His expertise extends to program design, booking tools and travel technology, supplier management and sourcing, as well as project management and change management.

Charlie has an established record of rapidly growing and scaling businesses in the travel sector, while delivering world-class services and project execution to his global clientele. Having held executive leadership positions with Orbitz for Business, Travel Leaders Corporate and Egencia, he has helped hundreds of companies transform their management of corporate travel spend, from first-time program implementations to global standardization of processes and procedures.

When he is not helping clients solve their travel management challenges, Charlie practices yoga and martial arts. He also enjoys golf, cooking and following New York-based sports teams. Though his wife and two children are pressing him to modernize his playlist, Charlie continues to be a die-hard fan of the Allman Brothers, Steely Dan, and the Rolling Stones.
