  • Managing key connection points and interdependencies across these functions.
  • Coordinating contributions into central program deliverables such as integrated project plans, risk management frameworks, and contingency plans.
  • Designing and facilitating cross-functional forums to engage senior leaders and gain buy-in on critical business decisions.
  • Leading stakeholder management to ensure perspectives are incorporated into broader organizational decision-making.
  • Supporting execution of change management, communications, and training plans related to integration activities.

Candidate Profile

  • Bachelor's degree in Business Administration, Finance, or related field.
  • 8+ years in program management, consulting, or corporate development with a focus on large-scale initiatives.
  • Proven ability to manage complex integrations and organizational change.
  • Experience evaluating business trends and successfully implementing new business programs and strategies that enhance multi-unit business performance.
  • Expertise in M&A lifecycle management (due diligence, integration planning, post-close optimization).
  • Strong facilitation and communication skills.
  • Ability to lead through ambiguity and deliver results under pressure.
  • Lodging / hospitality industry experience across multiple brands and disciplines.
  • Experience in cross-functional leadership and stakeholder management.
  • Core Work Activities

  • Build effective relationships with internal and external stakeholders to ensure smooth integration and alignment with growth objectives.
  • Ensure appropriate systems, tools, processes, and training are in place to support integration activities across acquired entities.
  • Ensure that key stakeholders understand and use deployed tools, resources, and systems to support decision-making processes.
  • Identify emerging business opportunities and risks during M&A processes and provide strategic recommendations.
  • Partner with global and regional leadership to identify gaps in integration tools and processes; ensure solutions are globally applicable and deployed effectively.
  • Identify gaps in M&A execution decision-making across all segments of business, and work with Growth Governance teams and relevant stakeholders to address these gaps through systems enhancements, tool development, process improvements, training and education, or a combination of these approaches.
  • Maintain first-hand knowledge of evolving integration strategies and best practices for global implementation.
  • Anticipate and address integration challenges with profitable strategies aligned to overall business direction.
  • Develop actionable recommendations to optimize performance and drive growth post-acquisition.
  • Review ongoing deployment decisions and initiatives ensuring the right approaches and resources are brought to bear on overall business challenges and opportunities.
  • Recommend deployment approaches for meeting project success criteria with minimal disruption to impacted associates.
  • Ensure deployment planning includes all tools, information, and resources necessary to set properties up for a successful launch.
  • Champion leadership development and workforce planning priorities during integration phases; collaborate with HR to anticipate talent needs.
  • Develop and execute integration deployment plans for priority initiatives, ensuring minimal disruption to business operations.
