Dear [Hiring manager's name],
At Palmwood Hospitality Group I maintain the BI layer that 40 property general managers check every single morning before setting that day's room rates. I'm applying for the Business Intelligence Analyst role because your posting describes reporting that drives same-day pricing decisions, which is exactly the kind of BI work I find worth doing.
When occupancy forecasting started drifting badly during shoulder season, I rebuilt the underlying model with a rolling 90-day comparison instead of a fixed calendar year, and forecast accuracy improved from around 71% to 88%. That fix now feeds directly into the daily rate recommendations that all 40 properties rely on every morning.
I build in Power BI and write the SQL behind every dataset myself rather than trusting a black-box extract, and I sit in weekly revenue management meetings across the portfolio to hear how the numbers actually get used. I've cut our dashboard refresh failures by rewriting three brittle stored procedures this year.
I'd welcome the chance to show you the occupancy model and talk through how it might apply to [Company name]'s portfolio. I'm glad to walk through my SQL and Power BI work in a technical interview. Thank you for considering my application.
Warm regards,
Cameron Wilson
