The management of the Kempinski Hotel San Lawrenz has announced that Tanja Mueller (right) will be taking up her new post as Director of Sales today.

Born in Germany, Ms Mueller enjoyed wide-range training in the hotel and tourism industry in her home country and the USA. She gained invaluable work experience in various placements at luxury hotels in Switzerland, Italy and Austria, the majority of which formed part of the prestigious Kempinski group.

For the past three years, Ms Mueller worked in one of Kempinski’s trophy hotels, the Kempinski Grand Hotel des Bains in the ski resort of St Moritz, initially as Groups & Events Supervisor before being promoted to Groups & Events Manager, and in 2008 to Assistant Director of Sales.

“With her extensive knowledge of a holiday resort that faces seasonality problems similar to those of Gozo, and her expertise in the MICE business, Ms Mueller is going to be a definite asset in leading our sales and marketing department,” said general manager Noel Attard.
