Position Overview
Hyatt is seeking a Business Travel Program Operations Coordinator to support day-to-day operations for its small to medium business travel program while assisting with the ongoing transition to a new platform.
This role provides operational execution support across account management workflows, data validation, account onboarding, and system migration activities. The contractor will play a key role in ensuring continuity of service during platform migration and post-launch stabilization.
This is an execution and operations-focused role, not a strategic or technical development position.
The ideal candidate is highly detail-oriented, customer-focused, and comfortable working across hospitality, sales, operations, and digital product teams in a fast-paced enterprise environment.

This role sits at the intersection of:
Hospitality operations + account management + light systems support + platform migration execution
