Director of Selection

My name is Russell Martiny, I currently work for Northwestern Mutual as the Director of Selection. I believe my unique work history with Harley-Davidson, YP Advertising, and NML have positioned me to transition seamlessly into any position.

Over the course of my lifetime I have learned many lessons that have molded me into a person with unique skills. Skills that I believe stand out among my peers and position me to fit well in any work environment.

Through competitive athletics, I have learned many principles of leadership & work ethic. I developed the skill of selecting the proper mentors to gain wisdom and direction. I learned to constantly be fully engaged and to sharpen my skills for greater productivity. By intelligently following my leaders, I was able to duplicate their duties and pass them on to others. While interacting with individuals from all backgrounds, I have developed an appreciation for understanding different perspectives and communication styles. Through excellent coaching, I developed a burning desire to be the best and work the hardest to produce results that were beyond what others expected of me.

In attaining my marketing degree, I learned to work smarter. The main principles that I acquired from this curriculum were to clarify your businesses objectives, identify and evaluate emerging opportunities, and establishing brand awareness. I began to have a more open mind, which helped me to gather information from unconventional places to present innovative ideas.

As Lead Sales Associate and Tour Center Marketing Research Intern at Harley-Davidson, I was able to forge long lasting relationships with the customer base at the Juneau Avenue, Pilgrim Road, and PDC facilities. I helped coordinate successful Tour Center events for Harley-Davidson Dealer Show and Harley-Davidson 105th, and provided guidance on how we could better the H-D Tour experience by interpreting data from the Tour Center surveys. 

As a Media Manager for YP Advertising, I believe I became proficient in three core skills vital to a productive sales and marketing person: Prospecting (selecting & acquiring leads, business partners, mentors, etc…) Fact Finding (discovering the needs), and Closing (asking for the business). I have interacted with individuals at all levels and in most sectors of business. I built an exciting clientele and produced results that placed me in the Top Quartile of my peers as well as a leader within my office.

I am interested in pursuing a career path that involves event coordination, relationship management, and integrating marketing materials. My professional and educational backgrounds are in marketing and sales with an emphasis towards project management. I strive to be a part of an innovative team that has the mindset to reach for the absolute best.


In my role as the Director of Selection for the Northwestern Mutual I am responsible for all recruitment efforts of the network office. My primary responsibility in the office is to build high-level quality relationships in the community and to promote the Northwestern Mutual career, generate referrals, and develop centers of influence.I actively participate in community clubs and organizations to promote Northwestern Mutual. I play a key role in creating and leading the recruiting plan to reach activity and contract goals. I help promote the benefits of office growth and recruiting successes within the office.
