Seattle-based, ultra-luxury cruise line Seabourn has named Gerald Mosslinger as the new vice president of hotel operations.

In the role, Mosslinger will be responsible for the line's overall marine hotel operations, including culinary, guest services and administration, and entertainment. He previously spent more than seven years at Seabourn, both ashore in Miami, Fla., and aboard the line's ships.

"We are pleased to welcome Gerald back to the Seabourn team as we continue our leadership role in the luxury travel segment in 2017 and beyond," said Richard Meadows, president of Seabourn. "I'm looking forward to his influence and expertise, which will continue to drive our award-winning guest experience along with innovative new ideas that deliver a rich travel experience."

Mosslinger most recently served as vice president, food and beverage, for Holland America Line. His professional career includes a stint with Joachim Splichal's Patina Restaurant Group based in Los Angeles, where he served as regional vice president.
