Heathman Expands Sales Team
AUGUST 23, 2007. The historic Heathman Hotel, Portland's premier, full-service luxury hotel and a property often looked to for the best Portland has to offer, has hired Jessica Rioux as a sales manager.
Rioux comes most recently from a corporate sales management position at the Hotel deLuxe where she was responsible for obtaining new clients, maintaining relationships with existing clients, driving outside sales, and educating potential clients on product and services. Prior to her work at the Hotel deLuxe, Rioux was the area sales manager for Macys/Meier & Frank, an assistant store manager at Mervyns and front desk supervisor at the Marriott, all in Oregon.
"We could not be more thrilled to have Jessica join our sales team at the Heathman," said Stephen Galvan, director of sales and marketing at the Heathman Hotel. "Her recognized history of superior customer service and outstanding sales, as well as her knowledge of the hospitality industry will be a great complement to the successful, growing team we have in place."
"I am honored to join the Heathman sales team because I feel they have a fantastic staff and a great brand to promote," said Rioux. "I wanted to be a part of an outstanding team with an impressive reputation and the Heathman certainly stands above any other hotel in the city."
