Job Title

Implementation Specialist (Airlines/Travel Distribution)

Purpose of the role

The Implementation Specialist ensures that customers can successfully adopt and use Amadeus Ticketing & Payment products by managing the implementation lifecycle from requirement clarification and readiness assessment through product provisioning, configuration, functional validation, production activation, go-live, and post-implementation support.
