Lantern Hill, an Erickson Senior Living community in New Providence, NJ, is excited to announce Nick Rossiello’s promotion to sales director! Rossiello, who most recently served as the community’s sales manager, boasts years of experience in the senior living industry.
\n\u201cI worked at Cedar Crest, a sister Erickson Senior Living community in Pompton Plains, NJ, for 16 years in a variety of roles,\u201d he said. \u201cIn some regards, coming to Lantern Hill felt like a new adventure. But Erickson’s warm, friendly culture is also present here, which made me feel right at home.\u201d
\nRossiello’s career with Erickson Senior Living began in high school. He and some friends were hired as student servers at Cedar Crest.
\n\u201cI had assumed that my friends and I would all work together, but we were assigned to different restaurants,\u201d he recalled, with a laugh. \u201cIt turned out to be a great opportunity for me to really spread my wings and make new relationships.\u201d
\nThose relationships have only endured and grown stronger over the years. \u201cOne of the servers I met then was the best man at my wedding, and I’m still close friends with Jessica Cirelli, who is now Cedar Crest’s sales manager,\u201d he said.
\nRossiello earned his undergraduate degree in 2012 \u2014 without a definitive career path ahead of him. However, his experience working for different companies during college brought him back to Erickson. \u201cI was not sure what I wanted to do, but I knew I wanted to do it here,\u201d he shared.
\nHe returned to the dining team at Cedar Crest and then transitioned to Resident Life, supporting the community’s in-house TV studio, before finding his true calling in sales. \u201cI’m really passionate about introducing prospective residents to the vibrant, worry-free lifestyle they could enjoy,\u201d he said.
\nHe joined the sales team as an associate, but he quickly worked his way up the ranks. His hard work and dedication led to the following promotions: senior sales associate, sales counselor, and sales manager.
\nSo, when an opportunity to join and grow with the sales team at Lantern Hill arose, he was the ideal candidate.
\n\u201cIt’s been an honor getting to know and work closely with the team at Lantern Hill,\u201d said Rossiello.
\nFor Rossiello, one of the most exciting aspects of being at Lantern Hill right now is the chance to participate in the community’s tenth anniversary celebrations.
\nTo commemorate such an impressive milestone and prepare for the next ten years ahead, the community is renovating several amenities across campus. Renovations will enlarge the marketplace; enhance the lobby, Union Square restaurants, and the Fireside Lounge; and add a Starbucks.
\n\u201cIt’s very exciting! These updates will help us fulfill our promise of providing residents with a vibrant lifestyle,\u201d said Rossiello.
\nIn fact, Rossiello notes that the demand for this retirement lifestyle is at an all-time high. \u201cWe are close to selling out, so we are urging people to reserve their home now,\u201d he emphasizes. \u201cBeing on the Priority List puts you one step closer to reserving.\u201d
\nIn addition to saving a spot in line for a residence, Priority List members receive invitations to exclusive informational events and community updates.
\nSigning up for a Live the Life stay \u2014 an overnight experience in a furnished guest suite that allows members to enjoy amenities, dine at on-campus restaurants, and chat with current residents \u2014 is another perk.
\n\u201cI highly recommend participating in the Live the Life program,\u201d he said. \u201cIt’s a great opportunity to see what living at Lantern Hill is really like.\u201d
\nWhen he’s not busy supporting the sales team at Lantern Hill, Rossiello is plenty busy at home. Three weeks after he joined the community, his son was born.
\n\u201cI was able to take more than two months off to be with my son, Lucas, and my wife, Melody,\u201d he noted.
\n\u201cThe positive culture here extends into work-life balance, which I really appreciate. It’s just another advantage of working at Erickson Senior Living. The culture, the residents, and the staff make a difference.\u201d
\nAs a family, they enjoy exploring New Providence and the surrounding areas. He credits Melody for finding so many kid-friendly activities to do.
