Jeffrey Gronemeyer

Vice President, Sales & Marketing

Jeff has extensive experience in business development and marketing strategy. He has worked in the senior living sector both in the United States and abroad, and has held multiple leadership roles including VP of International Sales and Census Development and Fractional VP of Sales.

Jeff received a Bachelor’s degree in Mass Communications Advertising and Design from Saint Louis University.

“I always enjoyed the relationships built in the selling process. Senior Living allowed me to build those relationships in a deeper and meaningful way as we help seniors and families find new life opportunities that they may have felt no longer existed for them,” Jeff shared.

“I began as a bartender part-time in a senior community while considering my next career move.  I moved into sales and after successfully helping to fill my first IL community was offered the opportunity to travel and help sales teams in other communities with census challenges,” Jeff continued.  “I may have been one of the earliest sales specialists as that was not a common role.  After helping several established and new-build communities develop strong occupancy, I spent three years working as an Executive Director so I was more versed on the operational needs of a community, and could better align sales and ops to achieve success.”

Following time working abroad in China and back home in the US as a consultant, he joined LSMNJ. “I was blessed to find LSMNJ and be able to join the organization to help grow its occupancy,” said Jeff.

Jeff, an avid hockey and baseball fan, history buff, and travel lover, enjoys time with his wife and three children—two boys and one girl. The oldest is a Captain in the United States Air Force, his middle son is a Ph.D. Neuroscience candidate at Penn State, and his youngest, his daughter, is an interior designer.
