Senior Data Analyst

Journey is a leading hotel marketing agency, revolutionising the luxury hospitality and travel industry through creativity, incomparable Industry knowledge, and digital disruption. Working with the best luxury hotels and resorts in the world, empowering growth and increasing revenue through innovation, collaboration, and technology solutions. Before we get started, there are three things you need to know. At Journey, we will always have an entrepreneurial spirit. We started off as a team of six and have never forgotten our humble roots. To thrive you will need to embrace this mindset. 

We all roll up our sleeves, we help each other out, we admit if we are struggling, we lean on one another and we leave ego at the door. That is very important. Everyone plays a part. We are a business of collaboration and sharing, be it ideas, time, skills, knowledge, energy or snacks...we are in it together. Our clients are considered part of our business and we treat them with the same inclusive respect and consideration. Travel and hospitality is a joint personal passion of everyone involved. If you don’t have a taste for adventure, or you don’t have a curiosity and interest in the wider world, we’re probably not the place for you.
