Key responsibilities include managing department workloads, reviewing priorities, and ensuring the team takes ownership of their product and berthing to align the guest and ship journey. The Team Leader fosters a fun and engaging environment by leading from the front.

Additionally, the Team Leader works with the Revenue Manager and the Air, Land, and Analytics Manager to optimize revenue and inventory. They continuously review processes to enhance business performance and ensure an exceptional guest journey.

Responsibilities include:

• Development, training, and mentoring of the team to drive business performance and revenue
• Leading the team to deliver processes on time and consistently
• Managing all deliverables related to inventory for both brands
