DUNEDIN, Fla. – Mainsail Lodging & Development has promoted Grant Hart to director of sales at the Fenway Hotel in Dunedin, Fla.
In this role, Hart will handle training and supervision of the sales and event planning team to generate and execute meeting business in the corporate, government, sports, and social market segments.
“We’re thrilled to see Grant continue her success within the Mainsail family, bringing her wealth of experience and earnest enthusiasm to her new role at Fenway,” says Joe Collier, president and founder of Mainsail Lodging & Development. “Beyond her natural talent and proven track record, Grant’s dedication, leadership, and passion for the hospitality industry and Mainsail make her the ideal candidate.”
With more than a decade of hospitality experience, Hart began her journey in the industry in Sarasota, Fla., where she discovered her passion for guest service and sales at Tijuana Flats. She has since spent more than seven years in sales at several of Mainsail Lodging & Development’s properties.
