Todd is the founder and current Managing Director of Parker Travel Collection. Commencing his tourism training at the Queensland Tourist and Travel Corporation (present day Tourism Queensland), Todd gained experience in the retail, wholesale and marketing divisions of Tourism Queensland.

Looking for new challenges, Todd became co-manager for the development and construction of the 150 room resort Palm Royale Cairns in 1993, and led its sales and marketing team in the resort's early years.
