TCI Native Promoted to Sandals Resorts International Group Manager

#TurksandCaicos, March 24, 2018 – Providenciales – North Caicos native Fedeline Julian has been promoted to Group Children’s Activities Manager for Sandals Resorts International and becomes the first Turks and Caicos Islander to be  promoted to a regional level.

The new role which was officially announced in January 2018  took immediate effect and gives Julian  direct oversight for the supervision of all Kids Camp Managers and childcare programs for Beaches Resorts in Turks and Caicos, Jamaica and soon to be Barbados.

Her role will include auditing of Beaches Kids Camp activities, ensuring safety standards are upheld throughout all Beaches resorts, implement Sesame Street Programs, raising awareness of the Kids Camp, increasing training for the Kids Camp employees and implementing Early Childhood Certification for team members across all Beaches  Resorts.

Speaking on Julian’s new role was the Director of Entertainment for Beaches TCI David Ellis, who has been a mentor to Julian for many years.  “We are so proud of Fedeline’s promotion, I couldn’t think of a better candidate to take over the Children’s program for the brand regionally which will eventually impact our entertainment program here.” He said,  “This is a true success story, she started here as a babysitter and has worked her way up the rank to the local management team and now she is the first Turks & Caicos Islander to work with the regional management team.”  Ellis continued.

“Under her direction, she will tackle some of the major transformations in childcare that we have not had the capacity to undertake.

Julian began her career with Beaches Turks and Caicos in December of 1999 as a Babysitter and Private Nanny.  She was later promoted to Camp Counselor (2000), Kids Camp Supervisor (2003), and Kids Camp Acting Manager (2004). In 2005, Julien received a scholarship from Beaches Resorts to pursue a Bachelor’s Degree in Hospitality from the Hocking Technical Institute.  She returned to the resort in 2007 where she then trained for Room Divisions Training Manager Program and was subsequently promoted to Kids Camp Manager (2013-2018).

Managing Director Donald Dagenais, said that Julian has taken the children’s entertainment program here at Beaches TCI to a new height, and he is excited to see her lend her expertise on a regional level.

“Fedeline has been a part of the Beaches TCI Family for 18 years and our kids entertainment program has grown from strength to strength.  Her remarkable leadership and enthusiasm will certainly be an asset to the regional team. We are so proud of her and we are excited to see her work to develop programs that will be rolled out across the brand.”

Commenting on her new role, Julian said; “It is an honor to be recognized for the work that I do. It speaks volumes that they are really paying attention to the people who are working and putting their best foot forward. I’m also humbled by the fact that Turks and Caicos Islanders can now look and say that’s one of us.”

“There are a lot of great individuals that played a major role in my success. Barbara Lynn Missick is an example of such a person because she brought me into Beaches Turks and Caicos for the first time.  My North Caicos family who took me in from the time I was two years old and made me who I am today,” she said, “Special thanks and gratitude to my Managing Director Donald Dagenais, who believed in me and promoted me through the ranks,  my team at Beaches Turks and Caicos and of course, the Entertainment Director Mr. David Ellis, who has been my mentor—thank you for  showing me the greater aspect of entertainment, I owe my success to all of you.”

Julian will be primarily based in the Turks and Caicos but will divide her time between the TCI and Jamaica to fulfill her duties.
