Allocation And Inventory Specialist
: I was originally employed to assist with the Sales & marketing of theproducts (hotels) we sell. This included doing weekly comp shops to see whatthe competition is advertising and compare our pricing to theirs. I had tocompare contracts to what was loaded in the system, work out packageprices and present a spreadsheet of options to the MD. I also had to doweekly rate sheets (data analysis) to show forecasted rates for certain datebands and compare it to different prices with ROE changes. I analyzed roomnight reports / sales reports to see what hotels the top sellers were and putincentives in place, tracked overrides and made suggestions on what toadvertise. As Inventory specialist I was tasked to manually manage ourallotment, ensure there is always availability and liaise with suppliers to alwaysgive preference to our clients first. I also organized education trips for theagents as well as a Media trip for exposure and free advertising for thecompany.
