ST. LOUIS -

JMN Logistics announced earlier this week it has hired a new sales manager.

Tapped for the position is Alycia LaMartina. LaMartina will represent the auto transportation and logistics company at numerous auto auctions and dealerships across the greater St. Louis area.

“Alycia’s strong work ethics and ability to work independently will make her transition into sales an easy one," said Cindy Darnell, JMN Logistics director of business development.

"She has a great attitude and strong customer service skills making her the perfect addition to our sales department," she added.

LaMartina joined the company in 2008, with 10 years of prior experience in customer service management.

For the most recent four years, LaMartina’s jobs have led her through range of responsibilities and areas, including time in both dispatch and accounting departments.

She also just received her bachelor’s degree from the University of Missouri St. Louis, this past May.

The company also noted that its new sales manager’s father was in the transportation industry, as well, which played a part in her current interest in the field.
