Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection Expands Sales Team with Trade Focused Appointment

The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection has named Jeremy McClellan as vice president of trade sales and support. He was one of several new global sales appointments including new leads for global reservations, travel partnerships in Australia and New Zealand, trade sales in South America, and charters and incentives.

According to the company, the appointments underscore The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection’s “ongoing investment in commercial growth and its commitment to delivering best-in-class service to travel partners worldwide.”

The appointments follow the company’s most successful Wave season to date, and come ahead of the debut of Luminara, its third superyacht launching this July.

McClellan will oversee the trade sales, inside sales, and partner assistance teams across the Americas. Prior to joining The Ritz-Carlton Yacht Collection, McClellan served as director of luxury sales at Marriott’s Luxury Group and as director of sales across various Ritz-Carlton properties. He reports to Kristian C. Anderson, senior vice president of global sales.

“As we close a record-setting WAVE season and look ahead to the launch of Luminara, our third 
superyacht, we remain focused on expanding both the strength and scale of our global sales team,” Anderson said. “With industry veterans like Jeremy, Julio, and Anastasia joining, and exceptional internal talent like Harold, Stephanie, and Joao rising into expanded roles, we are well positioned to ensure even greater service to our travel partners around the world.”
