🧭 The internship — Mission description

The context

• Within the Premium, Midscale & Economy division, home to some of the Group's best-known brands, Emerging Brands are its most agile playground.
• Four brands, each with a unique personality, reinventing in their own way how people travel and come together in a hotel: JO&JOE, the Open House blending hotel and hostel, where travellers and locals meet; greet, the feel-good brand of the economy segment; TRIBE, eclectically designed hotels for connected travellers; and Handwritten Collection, independent hotels that keep their history and soul while benefiting from the strength of the Accor network.
