Columbia Hospitality Claimed Company
OUR ENTREPRENEURIAL SPIRIT
IS ALIVE AND WELL
We'll try just about anything once. This entrepreneurial spirit is how Columbia Hospitality got its start. As a trusted partner of the Port of Seattle, having planned and executed many events for them, they asked Columbia CEO and Founder, John Oppenheimer, if he knew anyone who would be a good operator for the soon-to-be-built Bell Harbor International Conference Center. Having no management experience, naturally, John said, “Yes, US!” When asked why, his response was, “Because we’ve never done it before, but no one knows what your clients want better than us!”
We got the job, and we still have that job decades later.

As a newer employee, I've felt extremely supported, not shamed for asking questions and clarifying questions, and encouraged to speak up in meetings when I have ideas.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
Beekeeper is such a good connection to all the properties and people. For a remote worker, this is essential to me!
What is the best part about your compensation package?
Honestly don't care as much about the benefits, because it's about the people that work there and how they treat me. That's what's most important to me
What makes you most happy at work?
My team for sure. But also the trust that I can manage my own time to get my tasks done in a timely manner. This helps me with work/life balance
What do you like best about the leadership team?
Everyone is so ready to assist no matter if they are working for the same properties or not. I've never reached out and not gotten a speedy, helpful response from the Leadership Team. Thank you!
What are some of the best things about your team?
I don't have enough room to list it all!! It all starts with the company hiring top quality people. Heather Vieira is the best boss I've ever had and Joanna works harder than almost anyone! We're a tight dream team
