Easy (Ez) Revenue Management Solutions Ltd. (EasyRMS), provider of SaaS Revenue & Yield Management solutions to the global hotel industry, is very proud to announce a new managing director, Mr. Stan Van Roij, who boasts a 20+ year career, this entirely within hospitality and revenue management.
Stan will be responsible for
EasyRMS’ global operations and will be based in the EasyRMS London offices.
Stan’s impressive career began in the Netherlands, where he studied Hotel & Catering with an emphasis on Business Management. Since then he has worked his way up the managerial ranks for three major, global hotel chains as well as running his own consultancy business. This has given him continued focus on the industry and, in particular, in the field of revenue management.
“I have always believed that revenue management is the key to success for any industry that offers perishable products, such as the hotel sector. Good revenue management - or better yet, revenue strategy - is crucial to maximizing revenue opportunities from existing demand,” comments Stan.
A Dutch native and speaker of four languages, Stan spent the last six years in various managerial roles for NH Hoteles, most recently as corporate director of revenue management, where he was responsible for the total revenue strategy of all hotels in the group.
Prior to this, Stan advanced to vice president of revenue development for Radisson SAS Hotels & Resorts, and to area director of revenue management for Marriott Hotels International, in Frankfurt, following ten years with the international chain.
Such a successful career demonstrates Stan’s dedication to the hotel industry as well as his succesful leadership and managerial skills. Stan possesses great financial acumen and global perspective; he is also a confident leader and a strategic business planner.
“This new role will allow me to apply my skills and experience to all the different areas I will be responsible for,” says Stan, “and I hope to help EasyRMS realize both their short- and long-term objectives. I’m sure I will miss certain aspects of working for a global hotel chain, but am also confident that these will be traded off by working with a great product, a great company and a great team of experts.”
Stan has been working with EzRMS™ for a number of years, as a client, and notes that the system has always helped him to achieve his revenue goals; not only in times of economic growth, but also in periods of economic slowdown. “Combine that with the fact that the company has doubled in size over the past two years and it becomes clear that the company is very successful and has a viable business proposition,” he adds.
EasyRMS chief executive officer, Paul Margaillan, says this is a major step for EasyRMS. He comments: “We are delighted to put our day-to-day business management into such capable hands. Stan’s experience and knowledge of both the hospitality industry & revenue management is extremely high and well respected throughout the globe, having held director-level positions with such prestigious brands. I have every confidence that Stan will continue to drive our rapidly expanding organization forward and will integrate seamlessly with our growing, global team, further contributing towards our ongoing success over the coming years.”
Stan concludes: “It is going to be a pleasure working for a successful organization which operates in my field of experience, which continues to expand on a global scale and which has a product able to help many more hoteliers maximise their revenues.”
