📣 About the role

Your mission as Thynk’s Head of Professional Services is to act as the key business partner to the COO (also co-founder) and take over responsibility for project delivery in different regions (Europe, the US, and Asia).

Overall you will be supporting us to deliver our ambitious business targets for 2023 and beyond, and lead our efforts to position Thynk to achieve our long-term growth plans.

Thynk’s customers are enterprise-grade; Thynk will be used by their sales, operations, and finance teams as their core solution for data management, process management and automation, and communication with their customers.

Our solution intervenes across the hospitality value chain: Sales processes (central reservation desk, RFP management, negotiated rates, block management, territory management, BoB vs. forecast vs. budget), Operation processes (pickup, reservation management, rooming list), and finance process (deposit / pro forma, participant fees, accounting items, invoicing, collection).

As change management and adoption sit at the core of the success of our project, project methodology is key. It includes a first level of documented project methodology: steering committees to set levels of expectations and manage the risk, weekly project meetings, and template-based task lists and acceptance criteria.

It is a multi-project environment: each project manager manages multiple projects at the same time. The average project duration is about 6 weeks.

Professional Services is crucial. As TechCrunch says, Professional Services “accelerate new logo velocity, resulting in higher ARR, and thus stronger growth”
