- You've managed complex, multi-stakeholder partnerships involving associations, GPOs, franchise networks, or membership organizations.
- You have strong executive presence. You're comfortable presenting to a room of hotel owners, navigating a golf outing with AAHOA board members, or running a webinar for 200 attendees.
- You're organized, detail-oriented, and thrive when you're juggling events, campaigns, and relationship touchpoints across a portfolio of stakeholders.
- You're willing to travel 30–40%+ of the time, including to major hospitality conferences and AAHOA regional events.

- You will have the opportunity to travel frequently and meet our customers and partners in person.
- We're a small team who work collaboratively and meet daily for stand up.
