This is a great opportunity to join the surging travel industry and help drive the business forward while working on impactful and complex problems.

This requires a leader that is curious, fearless, has a strong bias to action and deliver results.

• Demonstrated ability to lead cross-functional teams, influence and align stakeholders to achieve successful business outcomes without direct organizational authority
