  • Manage state and local tax filings, including Florida Sales Tax and Orange County Tourist Development Tax (TDT).
  • Coordinate internal and external audits to ensure 100% compliance with corporate and regulatory standards.

Operational Oversight

  • Partner with the Revenue Management team to analyze RevPAR, ADR, and occupancy trends.
  • Conduct monthly P&L reviews with department managers, providing coaching on labor management and expense control.
  • Oversee IT and purchasing departments to ensure procurement processes are cost-effective and secure.

  • Experience: Minimum of 5–7 years of financial leadership experience in a full-service hotel or resort.
  • Technical Skills: Proficiency in hotel ERP systems (e.g., Oracle/Opera, M3, ProfitSage) and advanced Excel modeling.
