ALG Vacations has announced the promotion of Nick Sawatzki to Regional Sales Director for the West, Mountain, and Heartland states.

Sawatzki first joined ALGV in 2023 as a BDM. He has spent more than a decade in the travel industry, supporting agencies at The Mark Travel Corporation and later gaining a global perspective leading account management at Groupon Getaways.

During his time with ALGV, Sawatzki helped grow meaningful partnerships with agencies in the Chicago region, Central Illinois, and Wisconsin. In his new role, the Chicago-based regional sales director will work closely with BDMs to accelerate sales growth across the West, Mountain, and Heartland states.

“Nick’s promotion is a direct reflection of the leadership, consistency, and results he has delivered,” said Jim Tedesco, vice president of sales for ALG Vacations. “From day one, he’s built strong relationships and earned the respect of both our team and the advisors he supports. I’m thrilled to elevate him into this role and excited for the impact he will continue to make across the region.”

Sawatzki shared the news of his promotion on LinkedIn:

“I’m very excited to announce my new role as Regional Sales Director for the West, Mountain, and Heartland states here at ALG Vacations! My journey in travel has been nothing but rewarding both in my professional and personal life, and I cannot wait to take what I’ve learned into this new and exciting chapter! I want to express my deepest gratitude for my fellow colleagues, mentors, and travel advisors I’ve had the pleasure of working with throughout my career.”
