Unique Vacations Adds Second BDM In Western Canada

Unique Vacations Canada has added a second business development manager in Western Canada.

Jordon McGrowder has been appointed as Business Development Manager, Alberta, Manitoba and Northwest Territories effective immediately.

He will be based in Calgary, taking over the role from Donné Nixon, who previously served in the role for five years before relocating to Toronto to assume a new position as Human Resources Manager based in the Unique Vacations Canada corporate office.

With his extensive and proven experience in customer service, marketing and promotions in a number of sectors, including travel and tourism, McGrowder is well suited to help travel advisors in his region grow their business with Sandals Resorts and Beaches Resorts. A proud Jamaican and a graduate of the University of West Indies, he migrated to Canada to complete his post-graduate education at Seneca College in Toronto.

Maureen Barnes-Smith, Vice President, Sales & Marketing Canada, Unique Vacations Canada, said: “Jordon’s energy, enthusiasm and passion for the travel industry make him the perfect fit as the newest member of the Unique Vacations Canada sales team … I’m excited to watch him excel in this new role.”

Barnes-Smith continued: “Western Canada has long been an important market for Sandals and Beaches Resorts – we’ve had consistent in-market sales representation long before any other Caribbean resort company did – and now with Jordon working alongside the veteran presence of Winston Chang in Vancouver, we’re once again fully equipped to support our partners out west.”
