• Sofitel Luxury Hotels - Groupe Accor - VP Strategic Planning & Management Control

  2007 - 2009 As part of Sofitel brand repositioning, a new subsidiary company was created: SOLUXURY HMC. Within the Sales & Marketing department, my remit is to set up and monitor management control tools and procedures based on internal audits, in collaboration with the Finance department. I am also responsible for coordinating the department’s activities (sales, distribution, marketing) and projects, both internally and in liaison with the platforms (Global Sales, Accor Web, Purchasing, etc.)
  
  Goals and objectives:
  1- ensure that the Sales & Marketing department remains self-financing at all times i.e. that costs are covered by the management fees allocated (which latter comprise a percentage of the hotel’s annual turnover): budget of 8 M euros
  2- prioritise sales and marketing activities in support of the brand’s repositioning in a strategic context, whilst at the same time providing ad hoc tactical support to the various regions
  3- prepare business reports and financial monitoring tables for hotel owners so as to ensure that our activities and budgetary allocations fully comply with our contractual obligations.
