  • Coordinate group travel and room blocks with event planning teams, ensuring alignment on timing, budget, and traveler experience.
  • Partner with local office leads and executive assistants to manage space bookings, arrivals, and travel-related contingencies during key meetings.
  • Analyze and report on travel spend, usage patterns, and vendor performance, delivering insights to help the business make data-driven decisions.
  • Identify and implement continuous improvements to our travel processes, policies, and tools.
  • Maintain travel documentation, training materials, and communications in partnership with the Workplace Experience team.
