Summary The Opportunity

Your work will directly shape how senior leaders prioritize actions and how Hyatt drives revenue, profitability, and operational performance across the business.

The Role

As a Quantitative Analyst, supporting Insights & Decision Science for the Hotel Performance Hub (HPH), you will transform complex, often ambiguous data into clear, actionable insights that drive decision‑making and performance improvement across Hyatt’s global portfolio.

Reporting to the Director, Insight Generation, this role sits at the intersection of analytics and business judgment. You will focus on diagnosing performance, evaluating the impact of key initiatives, and translating findings into executive‑ready narratives that influence how leaders prioritize actions.

Rather than working from a fixed roadmap, you will engage on high‑impact questions as they emerge—requiring strong problem framing, comfort with ambiguity, and the ability to determine what to analyze and how to measure success.

Responsibilities

Conduct deep‑dive analyses of hotel and brand‑level performance to identify patterns, variances, and root causes

Structure ambiguous business problems and determine the appropriate analytical approach, including how success should be measured

Evaluate the impact of initiatives and interventions, accounting for real‑world complexity such as lagged effects, overlapping actions, and inconsistent adoption

Synthesize large, complex datasets into clear, concise, and compelling narratives tailored for executive audiences

Translate analytical findings into actionable recommendations that drive revenue, profitability, and operational performance

Work hands‑on with data, partnering with Data & Analytics, Finance, and Operations teams as needed, while maintaining ownership of analysis end‑to‑end

Support the development and refinement of performance tracking frameworks, dashboards, and KPI definitions

Conduct “forensic” analyses on underperforming hotels or portfolios and communicate findings with clear business implications

Collaborate with cross‑functional partners to validate insights and ensure they inform decision‑making processes

Contribute to hypothesis development and testing approaches for new initiatives and evolving business questions

Qualifications Experience Required:

4–6 years of experience in business analytics, strategy, revenue management, or performance analysis;

hospitality experience strongly preferred

Demonstrated ability to translate data into business insights and influence decisions

Experience working with large, complex datasets to generate practical, actionable outcomes

Bachelor’s degree in Business, Economics, Mathematics, Data Analytics, or related field

Strong proficiency in SQL and data visualization tools (e.G., Tableau, Power BI, ThoughtSpot);

familiarity with Python/R is a plus but not required

Experience Preferred:

Familiarity with hospitality performance metrics (e.G., RevPAR, ADR, occupancy) and enterprise data environments

Experience operating in fast‑paced, evolving environments with shifting priorities

Strong analytical curiosity, structured thinking, and attention to detail

Excellent communication skills, with the ability to convey complex findings clearly to non‑technical and executive audiences

Comfortable navigating ambiguity and independently driving work forward without predefined answers
