IHG Names Sergot SVP Global Sales

IHG Hotels & Resorts has named Mark Sergot SVP global sales to replace Derek DeCross, who departed the company in April. Sergot’s new role puts him in charge of the structure, standards and strategy of IHG’s Americas and global accounts team as well as all facets of global sales strategy, operations, effectiveness and business-to-business marketing, trade shows and events, according to his LinkedIn profile.

Sergot served previously as IHG’s vice president of global sales operations and enablement, a leadership role that contributed to many of the same objectives. Prior to his time at IHG, Sergot held the chief sales officer role at Associated Luxury Hotels International and a number of senior leadership roles at Fairmont, Raffles & Swissotel.
