I grow hotel revenue through pricing, forecasting, and commercial strategy.
IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I'm the revenue lead for Hyatt Regency Kolkata, Hyatt Regency Lucknow, and Hyatt Place Bodh Gaya, shaping pricing, promotional, and inventory decisions across the three-hotel portfolio. My work contributed to 7.2% portfolio RevPAR growth and forecast accuracy within 5%.
Previously at Amatra Hotel & Resorts, I redesigned promotional packages and demand-led pricing to deliver 14% year-over-year revenue growth, while reducing rate parity violations by 97%. At Novotel Goa, I improved online-channel and direct-website revenue productivity by 11% and 6% respectively.
I build financial models, rolling forecasts, budgets, and scenario-based pricing strategies that turn market and demand signals into commercial decisions. I also enjoy partnering with Sales, Marketing, Ownership, and Asset Management, while coaching reservations and revenue teams.
