Veteran hospitality executive Howard Tanenbaum is returning to the travel industry, announcing that he has joined Iberostar Hotels & Resorts as Vice President of Sales, North America. This industry truly is an addiction.

After a period of retirement, Tanenbaum said he was drawn back by his passion for the hospitality business, citing the industry’s energy, the opportunity to build successful businesses, and the relationships that make the sector unique.

In his new role, Tanenbaum will lead sales efforts across North America for Iberostar, a global all-inclusive resort company known for its beachfront properties in some of the world’s most sought-after destinations. He said he looks forward to supporting the company’s continued growth while strengthening relationships with travel advisors, industry partners, and colleagues.

Tanenbaum was extremely popular with travel advisors over the first installment of his career and is excited to reconnect with longtime friends and partners throughout the travel industry, noting that his “retirement” was always intended to be more of a temporary pause than a permanent departure.

“I’m looking forward to reconnecting—and to this exciting new adventure,” he said in his LinkedIn post.
