Worldwide: Serviced accommodation program manager Synergy Global Housing has appointed Cara Lingle as VP of its global supply chain, overseeing the Americas, EMEA and APAC regions.
Lingle’s experience in the service and hospitality industry spans leadership roles in sales, account management and supply chain.
Within the extended-stay sector, she has most recently held executive positions at National Corporate Housing and prior to that, BridgeStreet.
At Synergy, she will be responsible for developing property partnerships and alternative housing inventory solutions across the company’s global supply chain network.
Her appointment also comes as Synergy prepares to launch a new supplier sourcing platform and client portal later this year. The two products will help to drive greater efficiencies across apartment sourcing, booking and program reporting.
Debra Christopher, president of Synergy, said: “We are very excited to welcome Cara. She is a widely recognised leader in the service and hospitality industry, bringing more than two decades of global temporary housing leadership experience to the role. We look forward to her positive impact on the organisation as Synergy’s newest member of the leadership team.”
Synergy provides serviced accommodation in over 2,000 cities spanning 85 countries, with offices in China, Singapore, India, England, Ireland and multiple locations throughout the United States.
