SACO – The Serviced Apartment Company has announced the appointment of Melanie Klaschka as its new head of Sales for Europe.
As SACO prepares for the launch of its first European aparthotel in Amsterdam in 2016, the company said the new position will prove integral to the growth of its European operations, as well as providing it with local representation and support for a growing portfolio of international clients.
Klaschka will be based in Dusseldorf, with the role of building SACO’s presence within continental Europe. She is also tasked with scaling up operations across Europe in line with SACO’s continued European expansion.
Commenting on her appointment, Ben Harper, sales director at SACO, said: “Melanie is a perfect fit for our growing team. Her experience in global sales roles with both Bridge Street and Furnished Quarters in New York, gives her a unique insight into the industry.”
In 2016 and 2017, SACO will be opening and operating a wide range of further properties in the UK and into Europe, taking its total number of operated apartments to over 1,600. As well Amsterdam, there will also be new properties in cities such as London, Edinburgh, Aberdeen and Dublin, with others to follow, some of which will be SACO aparthotels and whilst others will be the company’s new Beyonder concept.
SACO operates a portfolio of over 750 apartments in the UK.
