  • Demonstrate the ability to influence senior leaders and achieve results through others.
  • Work well under pressure, be flexible and balance multiple priorities with tight deadlines.
  • Demonstrate flexibility, adaptability, and the ability to lead and drive change.
  • Possess excellent communication skills – especially written where it is critical to be able to synthesize information and data and then communicate it concisely in presentations
  • Be analytical in nature with strong financial competence and organizational skills
  • Have strong integrity and be able to handle projects of sensitive and confidential nature
  • Possess the ability to cultivate and maintain strong relationship with key internal collaborators across geographies/locations and to use those through collaboration and partnership to get results.
  • Identify and encourage the sharing of standard methodologies across teams and locations
  • Have a strong executive presence and be comfortable navigating and representing the organization in a professional and engaging manner.

What We're Looking For:

  • 5+ years consulting, data analyst, client management, sales, and/or related work experience required.
  • Experience inspiring change with senior leadership.
  • Consistent record of creating strategic vision, build action plans, set goals.
  • Innovative and creative approach with strong attention to detail
  • Ability to grasp new concepts quickly, process data and make relevant connections to business implications
  • Strong financial and eye for business with an analytical approach
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills with the ability to influence and present sophisticated ideas in a simple and compelling way to a wide variety of audiences.
  • Proven project management skills
  • Travel industry experience is desired but not required.
