Promoting From Within - Orleans Reshapes Its North Division

BENSALEM, Pa., March 7, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Orleans Homes North Division is pleased to announce that Dana Romano and Matt Berkis have been promoted to the role of general sales manager for the company's North Division.

Ms. Romano joined the Orleans team in 2005 as a Sales Representative, and has enjoyed great success at the company, advancing several times prior to her latest promotion to General Sales Manager. Similarly, Mr. Berkis came to Orleans from Temple University by way of the company's college recruitment program, getting his start as an intern and working his way up to his current role as General Sales Manager.

Together Dana and Matt will oversee 16 neighborhoods in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and New York. "Right from the start, I've had such a tremendous experience at Orleans—the homes, the neighborhoods and the quality of the company itself are really unmatched," said Berkis.

"I was able to set my goals and a clear path for achieving them through Orleans' career development program. It's so rewarding to know that your supervisor and peers are as invested in your success as you are," adds Ms. Romano.

Orleans' career development program begins at the university level with an active internship program. From there, young professionals are mentored and prepared for promotion from their start as a sales assistant or sales manager in training to community sales manager, general sales manager and beyond.

"We believe whole-heartedly in investing in our people. Both Matt and Dana are hard working, have extensive knowledge of multiple markets and are excellent at training and motivating their peers, and developing talent within the company, " said John Evans, North Division President. "We couldn't be happier about their promotion and are looking forward to their continued success with Orleans."
