Katy Murphy and Jason Spivey Join The Trade Team as Director of Sales and Senior Catering and Sales Manager Respectively
Beginning her career in 2007 in Illinois, Katy Murphy boasts an impressive resume as a sales director and marketing professional. After excelling as the Business Travel Sales Manager at the Westin Hotel in Chicago, Katy took her first position in Wisconsin at the Radisson Hotel & Conference Center in Kenosha where she received several high-profile accolades including a Rising Star Award, Sales Director of the Year, and the 2013 Radisson President’s Award. After several successful positions around Milwaukee, Katy joined the Trade Team after her time as Area Director of Sales for Maverick Hotels and Restaurants.
“I am incredibly excited to begin my work with The Trade,” said Murphy, “With such a new hotel, there’s an opportunity here to prove our excellence to not only the city of Milwaukee but to the world. Even in my first few weeks here, the passion and attention to detail I’ve seen from our entire team is totally unmatched and I know that’s reflected in the guest experience.”
Following a similar trajectory, Jason Spivey’s career began as the Sales and Events Coordinator at the Lucerne Inn in Dedham, Maine, earning him the Greater Bangor Visitor and Convention Bureau 2013 Tourism Employee of the Year Award, and the Maureen Waltz Spirit of Hospitality Award. Continuing his career, he too was eventually welcomed to Wisconsin as he joined The Trade following his time as the Catering and Sales Manager of the Renaissance Milwaukee West Hotel.
“I really couldn’t be more excited to join The Trade. Given the elite-level event offerings at this hotel, going above and beyond is not only expected but always achievable. Joining a team that puts this much focus on holistic and thoughtful customer service has made me feel incredibly supported in my goal of delivering unbeatable catering and events services,” said Jason Spivey of his new position. Owned and operated by NCG Hospitality, The Trade Hotel opened in May 2023 and houses 207 luxury guest rooms and suites, featuring California King beds, heightened ceilings, and state-of-the-art finishes. With three available restaurants, beautiful industrial interior design, and 9,000 square feet of meeting spaces, the new hires have the perfect playground for success.
