NOTE: TPG Capital, a global alternative asset management firm, recently acquired Hospitality Solutions. Over the coming months, Sabre is working with TPG to formally separate the Hospitality Solutions business from Sabre. It is important to understand that while you will be employed by a Sabre legal entity, your role will be to support the Hospitality Solutions business, which is now owned by TPG.
 

Hospitality Solutions, formerly part of Sabre Holdings, is a global leader at the forefront of hospitality technology powering over 40,000 properties across 174 countries. Celebrated for our innovative and customer-centric approach, we deliver integrated platforms for distribution, reservations, retailing, and guest experience to both renowned hotel brands and independent properties worldwide.

With the strategic support of TPG, a leading private equity firm, we are entering an era of accelerated growth, digital transformation, and operational excellence as a focused, independent company. Building on our legacy of driving technological evolution in hospitality, we are committed to setting new standards for guest satisfaction and operational efficiency.
