Marriott Manila names new general manager

Marriott Manila is pleased to announce the appointment of Bruce Winton as new general manager starting April 2013. A honed hotelier with 23 years of impeccable service, awards, and achievements handling mostly Marriott brands and properties, Bruce is known for his excellent management skills and ability to lead diverse groups of professionals achieving and exceeding business goals and creating exceptional guest experiences.

Bruce started as a commis chef, waiter, bartender, sommelier, and chief steward before working as a cook in his first Marriot property, the Hartford Marriott in Farmington, Connecticut in 1989. Each job enabled him to gain knowledge and perspective of how the whole hotel operation works.

Recently, in recognition of those stellar results, Bruce was awarded General Manager of the Year for Marriott International’s Asia Pacific Region, adding to the roster of awards he has received throughout his career. As new General Manager of Marriott Manila, Bruce looks forward with optimism to working with another set of diverse associates, embracing each other’s differences while performing in unity towards one direction.
