About the Job
Despite the challenges of the pandemic, Hopper managed to have triple digit year-over-year revenue growth in 2021. In fact, with over 70 million downloads, Hopper is the fastest growing travel-tech company and that is driven in large part by the performance of our unique fintech products which offer travelers an unparalleled level of flexibility and control. In 2022, Hopper is entering APAC, the world’s largest travel market.
We’re looking for an experienced Data analyst to join our growth team to support Hopper’s APAC market expansion. As we are tapping into new markets, we need to close supply gaps so as to provide competitive pricing for all our services while retaining a healthy P&L level. This role will be dedicated to conducting necessary market analytics reports and evaluating business deals more neutrally.
You’ll be responsible for improving Hopper’s APAC marketplace business intelligence, evaluating value and power of supply changes (Air, Hotels or Cars etc.), analyzing and optimizing business development deals and owning competitive pricing reporting. We’re looking for an attention-to-details and results-driven professional to help drive Hopper’s competitiveness in APAC from a data analytics perspective.
More about Hopper
Despite the pandemic’s impact on the travel industry, Hopper has emerged stronger than ever. As the travel industry continues to rebound, Hopper has demonstrated significant outperformance with its category-leading mobile-only marketplace, delivering value to customers and supply partners with the company’s proprietary suite of fintech offerings.
Here are just a few stats that demonstrate the company’s recent growth:
- Hopper’s valuation is now over $5B, which is more than triple our valuation from early 2020.
- The company grew its revenue by more than 300% YoY in 2021. Hopper’s monthly revenues are now 375% higher than its pre-pandemic high point and Hopper Cloud, Hopper’s new B2B initiative, is already 15% of its revenues and growing.
- According to Apptopia, Hopper was the #1 most downloaded OTA in the US in 2021. The app has over 70 million downloads.
- Hopper’s recovery is faster than the market and its share of the air travel market in North America is now 300% higher than prior to the pandemic, according to MIDT. We are now the 3rd largest air travel agency in North America.
- The company sells over $2B in travel and travel related financial services annually.
- Hopper’s fintech offerings, such as Price Freeze and Rebooking Guarantee, now represent over 70% of its air revenue.
- Given the success of its travel fintech, Hopper recently launched a B2B initiative called Hopper Cloud, where any travel provider can unlock a totally unique revenue stream by seamlessly integrating and offering Hopper’s travel content and fintech products. Hopper Cloud partners include Capital One, Kayak, Marriott, Amadeus, Trip.com, and MakeMyTrip.
The industry opportunity for Hopper Cloud is enormous as projections estimate that if all travel distribution channels offered travel fintech, it could increase the total consumer spend for the sector by $200 billion annually.
And all this recent growth is just the beginning. There are still so many new opportunities we’re excited to tackle in the next year!
