• Work closely with Marketing to identify the strongest hotels, destinations and offers and ensure they are promoted effectively to Coop members.
• Work with IT to ensure rates, availability, hotel content, supplier connections and the booking journey are working effectively.
• Work closely with Customer Service to understand recurring customer issues and work directly with hotels to help resolve them.
