Full Job Description

📋 Description

• Lead and develop a team of 8 Inventory Ops specialists across flights, ground transportation, and stays.
• Stay hands-on in the work yourself, diagnosing complex issues, setting technical standards, and modeling the bar you expect from others.
• Optimise across verticals, identifying where operational support is inconsistent or underdeveloped and building the standards, tooling, and processes that bring all three to the same level of reliability.
• Set the standard for operational excellence, defining governance frameworks that reduce BAU workload and increase reliability across teams and markets.
• Use data as a strategic asset to guide the team's priorities, defining success metrics for the team's work and translating insights into clear recommendations for senior stakeholders.
• Represent the team in cross-functional forums with Product, Engineering, and supplier-facing teams.
• Champion AI adoption across the team's workflows, coaching specialists on AI-assisted approaches and translating AI capabilities into measurable improvements in efficiency and quality.

🎯 Requirements

• People leadership experience, with a track record of developing people and improving how a team operates.
• Solid working knowledge of travel inventory systems, GDS/NDC content, booking flows, supplier APIs, or similar backend systems.
• 4+ years in operations, travel technology, or supplier management, with experience owning workflows end to end, not just executing steps someone else designed.
• Strategic thinking, connecting operational work to business outcomes and making trade-offs confidently.
• Proven ability to design frameworks and standards that scale, not just solving problems, but building systems and coaching a team to prevent them.
• Communication excellence, tailoring your message for technical and non-technical audiences.

🏖️ Benefits

• Opportunity to work with a global company and a diverse customer base.
• Flexible work arrangements, with the option to work from home or in the office.
• Access to the latest travel and technology tools and resources.
• Opportunities for professional growth and development, with training and mentorship programs available.
• A dynamic and inclusive work environment, with a focus on work-life balance and employee well-being.
