Global accommodation specialist with expertise in business development.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Global Accommodation Specialist with a strong background in business development and client relationship management. Currently, I serve as a Senior Global Accommodation Specialist at Situ, where I act as the primary point of contact for new business leads in the corporate travel and mobility sectors. My role involves sourcing temporary employee accommodation and assisting with RFI/RFP processes, ensuring that our clients' needs are met with precision and care.
Previously, I launched a relocation assistance service, which allowed me to leverage my personal experiences in the relocation process. This venture, although short-lived, provided me with invaluable insights into client needs and the importance of adaptability in a dynamic market. My experience at Monzo Bank as a Business Banking Specialist further honed my skills in customer service and risk mitigation, where I was recognized for my exceptional performance.
