Hello, I'm Mark V Jones.

"Resilience comes from focusing on what you can do." I take pride in excelling in leadership roles, where I focus on promoting collaboration among cross-functional teams and ensuring transparent, open communication. By leading through example, I inspire my team and colleagues to achieve their full potential, enhance performance, and stay consistently committed to our goals. Over the course of my career, I have refined my expertise in sales and marketing, revenue generation, and hotel openings​/​relaunches. I am eager to bring these strengths, along with many others, to your team. With over 25 years of experience in the hospitality industry, I have continually sought out dynamic opportunities to drive success. My career includes serving as Director of Sales and Marketing, where I played a pivotal role in opening and relaunching five hotel brands at the property level. Additionally, I bring extensive experience in strategic account management from my time at Lotus Hospitality Marketing, where I oversaw the marketing efforts for a large portfolio of global hotel brand openings and managed marketing strategies and budgets for premium and luxury hotels in major U.S. and Canadian city centers. I am passionate about helping clients, colleagues, and owners succeed by sharing my expertise and fostering a collaborative work environment that consistently delivers results. I am also highly skilled in managing project lifecycles, food and beverage operations, business development, and property management. My experience spans leading prestigious brands like Marriott, Hilton, IHG, as well as independent hotels and restaurants across North America. Driven by a deep passion for the hospitality industry, I thrive on challenges and am committed to making a meaningful impact in every project I undertake.
