Key contributor: Stewart Black, Partner Development Manager at Situ.
Stewart has worked in the hospitality industry since 2010, specialising in short-term holiday rentals for much of his career. He first joined Situ as a consultant, bringing invaluable expertise to our Partner team. His deep industry knowledge and strategic approach quickly made an impact, leading him to take on a full-time role as Partner Development Manager.
Expanding coverage to meet demand in hard-to-reach areas
As the serviced accommodation sector continues to evolve, Situ is working hard to strategically expand its property network to ensure clients have access to high-quality accommodation, even in traditionally harder-to-reach areas.
With this proactive approach to coverage, quality remains top priority, with a dedication to onboarding accommodation Partners who meet our high Situ standards. Finding these Partners who share our values is the job of our talented Partner team – who work hard to find the best of the best, ensuring clients who book with us see their needs met and exceeded.
Situ’s Partner Development Manager, Stewart Black, commented, “We have a culture where people care and want things to work, and they want people to get what they expect. I think a lot of businesses don’t do that. They have a shorter-term view.”
This speaks directly to our Connected by People mentality – a commitment shared by every Situ’er to build meaningful partnerships and ensure every client receives the care and attention they deserve.
Developing technology to strengthen partnerships
Alongside our strategic growth in accommodation supply, Situ is also enhancing its technology to better support our accommodation Partners. Seamless integration and efficient processes are essential for both our clients and our Partners, which is why we’re investing in technology that simplifies property onboarding and enhances the overall experience for all stakeholders.
By aligning our technology with the evolving needs of our Partners, we ensure that they can efficiently list and manage properties, while clients benefit from a smooth, streamlined booking process. Our tech solutions are designed to support a connected and efficient property network.
Looking ahead: a commitment to excellence
At Situ, we know that delivering outstanding guest care and high-quality serviced accommodation means constantly evolving. By focusing on expanding our quality Partner network in key locations and enhancing our tech capabilities, we ensure that our clients always have access to the right accommodation, in the right place, at the right time.
As the industry evolves, we will continue to adapt – developing our partnerships, refining our technology, and ensuring that our accommodation solutions remain flexible, high quality, and fully aligned with the expectations of modern business travellers and relocation professionals.
