This job would suit an experienced revenue manager or data analyst to be responsible for creating value from the company data and analytics tools in order to drive the commercial performance for the business. This individual will provide regular and in-depth analysis on company performances and create/maintain the suites of commercial reporting.

The business is a leader in their field and has recently been acquired by Private Equity who are looking to triple the size of the business in the next 3 years. This position is a management role although the first few months will involve understanding what is currently in place and what needs developing before a direct report is recruited in about 6 months’ time. (There is analytical support from another team initially).

The successful individual will have a keen interest in data analysis with around 5 years’ experience in working in the hospitality industry within data or analytics or revenue management.

You will work closely with the revenue management team and numerous other functions in the business so strong communication skill are essential. A high level of Excel is imperative and previous use of SQL or business intelligence tools would be advantageous.

Duties will include:

* Responsible for the “Business cycle” process where performance is discussed every Monday and revenue priorities set for the rest of the week
* Provide adhoc analysis supporting the business
* Create new set of performance KPIs in order to spot optimisation opportunities and not to rely only on key metrics and STR
* Leverage data to enable a new Test and Learn culture, with clear pre-implementation hypothesis, assumptions, and measure of success, and post-implementation monitoring of impact and mitigation actions when needed
* Apply statistical techniques to find correlations and spot new trends that can represent commercial opportunities
