• Continuously review and refine the process to improve speed, quality, and traveler outcomes while managing operational risk.

Issue management & remediation

• Act as owner for issues related to your experiences that impact members, leading traveler and business resolution and keeping key stakeholders updated on progress.
• Serve as the central coordination point across cross-functional teams (e.g., Product, Tech, TPSP, Legal, Finance) to drive timely, aligned resolution paths for members.
• Understand the traveler impact of the issue and define remediation plans that protect both traveler experience and business outcomes.

Audits, controls, and quality

• Execute regular audits of your experiences as part of the bi-annual audit process, validating alignment between business rules, live experience, and documented T&C across brands and points of sale.
