HTA looks to improve operations with new hire

The supplier appoints Joshua Beagrie

Hospitality Technology Advisory has appointed Joshua Beagrie to the role of consultant.

Beagrie will be working directly with partners to optimise hotel service, operations, and profitability through digital and IT transformations that elevate both guest and staff experiences.

He joins the company from Alliants, where he held the role of senior business analyst for more than three years. 

Prior to that he was at Kognitiv Corporation, where he worked on the group’s distribution, loyalty programme and travel technology strategies. 

Beagrie said: “Having been founded only last year, Hotel Technology Advisory is already a trusted partner to some of the most reputable hotel brands, and sits precisely in the sweet-spot of advisory as well as execution and solution implementation. I’m very excited to make tangible change and help hotels exceed in an ever changing business environment. 

“Being a critical friend that you can trust is a principle of mine. I'll be working closely with our partners to deliver robust service delivery; enabling staff to deliver a better guest experience, and data insights that drive revenue opportunities and a stronger bottom line.”

He added: “Hotels are moving towards a cohesive technology stack that unifies guest and staff experiences, and new data insights for better profitability. With a drive towards tightening operational standards and a reduction in the burden of administration, we expect to see opportunities across the sector.”

Kevin Edwards, CEO of HTA, said: “Having worked with Joshua before, I know the depth of his abilities in delivering operational improvements and creating better guest experiences.

“We look forward to drawing on his extensive experience in the sector, and to delivering our vision of driving better business performance through innovation and increased profitability.”
