The Radisson Blu Royal Hotel Dublin has appointed Finola Twomey as Director of Sales & Marketing. Finola, who is originally from Glanmire in Cork, has worked as Assistant Director of Sales & Marketing for the hotel since its opening in 2007, playing a huge part in making it one of Dublin’s busiest and most successful hotels.
Finola has worked in hospitality for over ten years. She completed her Bachelor of Business Studies & Marketing at the Cork Institute of Technology back in 2002. From there she joined Irish Distillers based in Oslo, Norway, where she worked for a year as Assistant Brand Manager of Jameson Irish Whiskey.
She did this through the IBEC/European Orientation Programme and a year later, after the one year graduate programme, Finola was asked to stay on in Oslo where she was promoted to the position of Brand Manager. In December 2004, Finola returned home to Dublin to join the opening team as Sales manager of the Hilton Dublin Airport which opened in June 2005. She worked in this position for two years until joining the opening team at the Radisson Blu Royal Hotel, Dublin in January 2007.
