• Serve as a culture ambassador, building positive relationships across the organization and supporting corporate and employee engagement initiatives.
• Provide administrative and project support to other senior executives and leadership teams as needed.
• Bring a proactive, flexible and collaborative approach to the role, recognizing that no task is too large or too small when supporting the CEO and broader organization.

• Experience supporting senior leadership within hospitality, hotels, travel, service-oriented organizations or a corporate environment is highly desirable.
