CORE WORK ACTIVITIES
Diagnose performance challenges & identify scalable opportunities
· Partner with the Digital Analytics and Topline Performance teams to identify micro-trends and performance gaps by property/product segment; surface root causes and prioritize opportunities that restore commercial health.
· Establish repeatable segment health monitoring (KPIs, early-warning indicators, performance narratives) to proactively identify emerging and at-risk segments before issues scale.
· Translate performance insights into a clear set of “what’s happening / why / what we’ll do” recommendations that can be understood by both Digital and Commercial leaders.
Build integrated, data-driven recovery plans with commercial partners
· Partner with hotel leadership/owners, Sales, Marketing, and Revenue leaders to develop integrated Digital performance recovery plans for underperforming segments—aligning demand generation, conversion optimization, and channel strategy into a single plan of record.
Influence Digital roadmap prioritization & drive execution
- Advocate cross-functionally to secure prioritization for the highest-impact opportunities.
- Work directly with Digital product squads to translate plans into epics/features, define outcomes, and drive sequencing toward measurable performance improvements.
- Identify where scalable platform capabilities (vs. one-off fixes) can solve common needs across the portfolio.
