The "official" travel agent for the corporation, whose purpose is ostensibly to book business trips for company executives and other "travelling" personnel. The use of the term "rep" implies that she is not an employee of the company, but an employee of an agency which has many other clients. I suppose it's possible she "represents" the company to various travel vendors (as a company purchasing agent would), but I take it that she "represents" a particular travel agency.
