Regional Vice President of Portfolio Operations

About Kasa

Kasa is the leading tech-enabled hotel and apartment hotel brand and manager. Kasa has built a hospitality operating system that fundamentally improves the profitability of hospitality assets while delivering a high quality, digitally forward experience to guests. We partner with owners of multifamily and boutique hospitality properties to deliver stylish, professionally managed accommodations to business and leisure travelers alike. We took the best that hotels and short-term rentals had to offer and created a new class of hospitality that is well-priced, reliable, and offers a large selection of great locations.

Unlike traditional hotel operators, we prioritize automation, AI-driven pricing, and data-driven decision-making to optimize revenue and improve guest experiences.

The Role

Kasa is seeking a strategic, commercially driven senior leader to oversee a regional portfolio of multifamily short-term rental apartments, hotels, and apartment-hotel properties. Success in this role requires deep experience in hotel and full-building operations. You will manage a multi-market portfolio, ensuring regional goals both inform and align with Kasa’s broader commercial strategies and owner expectations.

As Regional (Area) Vice President of Portfolio Operations, you will serve as the CEO of your region: You’ll act as a business owner responsible for leading other General Managers and ensuring commercial and operational success across a diverse portfolio. You will balance strategic vision with strong operational and financial execution, leading high-performing teams and P&L owners to deliver exceptional guest experiences, optimize financial outcomes, and strengthen partner relationships. This role requires a leader who can ask the right commercial questions, make the right operational calls, assess risk, manage escalations with sound judgment, and translate strategy into clear executional priorities.

You will play a key role in translating strategies into actionable regional business plans that deliver measurable results. Your ability to bridge hospitality operations with business strategy will be essential to driving sustained profitability, guest experience, and reputation, as well as asset-level value creation.

About the Team

This role is part of Kasa’s Operations leadership team and reports directly to the Senior Vice President of Operations. You will lead a team of Portfolio and Area General Managers within your region while serving as the central leadership point for a Regional POD, working cross-functionally with Revenue Management, Sales, Marketing, Finance, and Guest Experience. You will also partner closely with Real Estate, Launch, Tech & Product, and Hospitality Operations to ensure commercial and operational strategies are effectively translated into property-level execution.

Your influence will extend beyond day-to-day operations: shaping how resources are deployed, how portfolio performance is optimized, and how strategies are designed to strengthen both business outcomes and partner relationships. You will be accountable for ensuring your region’s teams are high-performing, well-coached, and representative of Kasa’s values, culture, and brand promise.

Location & Travel

This is an operationally immersive role, not a typical remote position. You’ll spend 60–70% of your time traveling across markets to lead property teams, engage partners, and drive performance. When home, your base will be a nearby Kasa property, where you’ll remain actively connected to front-line operations and team culture. Given the scope of this role, visible and connected leadership across regional and onsite teams is essential to success.

Preferred home-based metro areas include Austin, Dallas, Denver, Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, Nashville, Chicago, or Minneapolis– all with convenient access to property locations and major airports to support the travel requirements of this role.
