• Establish and govern enterprise performance measures, including KPI frameworks, semantic definitions, hierarchies, benchmarks, targets and reporting standards, ensuring commercial metrics are trusted, traceable, board-ready and consistent across dashboards, forecasts and business cases.
• Lead commercial and enterprise forecasting covering passenger demand, spend per passenger, conversion, product use, tenant performance, operational conditions and other material drivers, advancing YVR from retrospective reporting toward predictive and proactive intelligence through trend detection, anomaly identification, scenario modelling and early-warning views.
• Support Commercial Services, Marketing, Operations and Finance with decision-ready insight and analytical support for commercial pricing, product packaging, assortment, space allocation, lease and concession decisions, capital planning, business cases and performance interventions, including independently assessing enterprise and incremental business impact.
• Establish analytical approaches for passenger and customer segmentation, experimentation, causal analysis, opportunity sizing and performance measurement, and work with Marketing and Commercial Services to define business objectives, baselines, target populations, measures, data requirements and post-initiative review plans.
• Build and lead a high-performing multidisciplinary Commercial Insights team and culture, overseeing commercial analytics, reporting, forecasting, data science, visualization, business analysis and intelligence-product management, while managing resources, technology, research, specialist vendors and departmental investments.
