As a team we are driven by a singular vision: to curate the world's most exceptional customer experience and inventory at the most visited attractions in the world such as Disneyland, Eiffel Tower, Louvre Museum, and Broadway.

Your mission

• Assess and prioritise sub‑categories based on market opportunity, traveler demand, and strategic fit.
• Translate market analysis and traveler insights into a clear roadmap for growing each sub‑category.
• Develop the value proposition and go‑to‑market approach for each sub‑category, driving performance across both established and emerging segments.
• Oversee the end‑to‑end performance and growth of each sub‑category, setting clear goals, milestones, and success metrics.
• Drive cross‑functional alignment with Product, Marketing, Sales, and other teams.
• Lead, coach, and grow a team of Go‑to‑Market Managers, each responsible for owning and scaling an individual sub‑category.
• Report monthly progress across all sub‑categories to key stakeholders, including the Executive team.
• Represent the team's strategy and results with clarity and conviction, driving buy‑in and resource allocation.
• Define team ways of working, playbooks, and processes to enable scale.

• You have 5 to 10 years work experience, incl. people management. Either at a large tech company (> € 1 billion annual revenue), Start‑up and/or at McKinsey & Company, Boston Consulting Group, or Bain & Company.
• You are entrepreneurial, business savvy, creative, and willing to get your hands dirty.
• You are a strong people leader who knows how to hire, develop, and retain talent while maintaining a high bar for output and ambition.
• You are a sharp analytical thinker who builds conviction with data, using tools like Excel, Looker, and external market datasets.
• You thrive in ambiguity: you take the lead without needing detailed instructions and bring structure to complex, cross‑functional problems.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English; additional languages are a plus.
• You are a skilled communicator and influencer, able to align stakeholders across functions and seniority levels.
• Marketing and/or Product knowledge is a strong plus.
