TripAdvisor provides a unique, global work environment that captures the speed, innovation and excitement of a startup, at a thriving, growing and well-established industry brand. At TripAdvisor, you will be part of a dynamic, fun, and energetic team where you can immediately make meaningful contributions. 

TripAdvisor is the world’s largest information platform for travel. More than 400 million travelers around the globe come to our site and apps each month to discover and book the best things to do, places to eat, and accommodations. In 2019, the Membership and Growth team is focused on growing this member base and deepening member engagement. This critical role will be focused on designing and developing membership initiatives that positively shape the experiences, behaviors, engagement and lifetime value of our members.

About the role:

TripAdvisor seeks an experienced and passionate Senior Manager of Loyalty to assist in the conception and realization of its future member experience; including, responsibilities for visioning, strategy, business case/opportunity assessments and roadmaps. You will work with the Director of Loyalty and Vice President of Member Growth and Loyalty, to truly transform TripAdvisor’s current experience. Taking a data-driven, customer-centered and brand-grounded approach to defining key elements, you will help inform member incentives, earning behaviors, key experiences, services and compelling partnership initiatives. 

You will work in a fast-paced and entrepreneurial environment, with an expectation to skillfully navigate ambiguity while outlining innovative ways to engage, excite and solidify trust and preference among TripAdvisor’s members for their travel planning needs. At times, this will call for outlining and driving focused analysis and synthesis -- e.g. detailed competitive audits, leading primary research efforts, defining and managing segment-based analytics workstreams. While at other times, you will be deeply committed to project management -- creating and updating detailed roadmaps and coordinating internal and external partners (e.g. Engineering, Analytics, Brand Marketing and Product, as well as external vendors) to collectively meet key project milestones.
