I think recipient would be clearer than addressee, but I wouldn't say addressee would be a gaffe (but gaff is a gaffe).

Further, "специалист" should not normally be translated as 'specialist', as in Russian "специалист" usually means somebody very junior (who isn't a specialist at all). You can call them 'executive' etc if it's a job title, or a 'professional' if it's a description.
