About Bob W

I’m Bob W, your friend in town. I take the guesswork out of travel, blending the best of both worlds: hotel-grade consistency, local character, and a few surprises only locals would know. Every apartment is fully carbon offset and set up in Europe’s most interesting neighbourhoods, so you feel at home, just with better coffee and smarter tech. I’m building a new kind of stay: five-star comfort, local flair, and always a step ahead on sustainability. All you have to do is show up. I’ll handle the rest.

And now? I’m looking for someone to make our guest experience unmistakably Bob W.

The Role

Bob W is built on a simple but demanding idea: that every guest, in every property, should have a stay that feels distinctly Bob W. As our Customer Experience Lead, you’ll be the person who makes that promise real. This is a product marketing role at heart, you're thinking about the guest journey as a product to be designed and improved, not just managed. You will connect the dots between brand standards, guest experience, and commercial outcomes, sitting within the Marketing team while building deep, influential relationships across Operations, Property, and E-Commerce.

You will be the dedicated owner of the Inner Circle, our loyalty programme, turning past guests into lifelong advocates through sophisticated post-stay and in-stay communications and referral mechanics.

Beyond the digital touchpoints, you'll build and manage the local partner network - the gyms, breakfast spots, and artisans that bring our "live like a local" philosophy to life - developing a planned pipeline across markets, setting clear criteria for fit, and ensuring the network operates as a genuine, active programme.

From ensuring every new property is "guest-ready" on opening day to shaping how we present ourselves to institutional landlords, you will ensure our standards stick across our rapidly growing network of multi-market properties.

We are looking for a strategic thinker who is comfortable applying the required operational follow-through. You understand that a great guest experience isn’t just a brand output, it’s a commercial engine. Whether you are synthesising guest insights via AI, refining our tone of voice in Intercom, or managing community relations at the property level, you will be the person who both sets and upholds the Bob W brand experience. We embrace a flexible hybrid schedule that includes weekly touchpoints at our London office.

In this role, you will:

• Lead Opening Readiness: Partner with Property and Ops teams to ensure every new launch is on-brand and guest-ready, coordinating everything from photography and content to in-property standards.

• Co-own the Guest Insight Loop: Aggregate signals from guest feedback sources (Intercom, Revinate) and translate them into prioritised, actionable improvements across the business.

• Manage the Local Partner Network: Source and onboard the neighbourhood businesses that define our guest experience, moving from ad-hoc momentum to a structured, measurable partnership program.

• Govern Guest Communications: Maintain and evolve high standards for all guest-facing touchpoints, including Intercom macros, Messenger templates, and transactional emails.

• Support Supply-Side Credibility: Help shape the narrative that positions Bob W as a professional, trusted operator for real estate owners and landlords.

Our 5-star candidate:

• Loyalty & Retention Expert: You have managed a loyalty or retention programme with full commercial accountability, demonstrating the ability to design guest journeys that measurably drive LTV, referrals, and repeat bookings.

• Platform Fluent: You are comfortable orchestrating lifecycle communications and synthesising guest signals using tools like Twilio Segment, SendGrid, Revinate, and Intercom.

• Cross-Functional Diplomat: You build influence through results rather than hierarchy, acting as a natural connector between Ops, Real Estate, E-Commerce, and Guest Services.

• Operationally Disciplined: You translate high-level brand strategy into actionable standards that stick, with a relentless focus on the details and following through on resolutions.

• Launch Specialist: You have a track record of coordinating complex workstreams (content, photography, and standards) to ensure new locations or properties open flawlessly.

• Data-Driven Insight Miner: You can turn messy guest feedback and CRM data into clear, prioritised action plans, using AI tools to speed up synthesis and reporting.

• Strategic Partner Manager: You’ve built structured partner networks or community relationships, managing pipelines with clear criteria to ensure every partnership adds genuine value.

• Commercially Minded: You understand that guest experience is a business engine and can clearly articulate the link between brand investment and occupancy or supply-side credibility.

• AI-Forward: You use AI tools as a standard part of your daily workflow to improve efficiency, reporting, and production quality.

• Autonomous & Proactive: You are a self-starter who manages your own scope and priorities, anticipating bottlenecks in a fast-paced, multi-market environment before they occur.

• Multilingual (Bonus): Excellent written and spoken English is essential; fluency in German or another European language is a significant plus.
