Rebecca Sheehan has been appointed by Traxo, a leading provider of data solutions for travel risk management, expense tracking, and compliance, as Senior Vice President of Strategic Partnerships. This newly established position underscores the importance of travel service partners in Traxo’s mission to provide businesses with complete visibility into all business travel bookings and expenses made by their employees, regardless of the booking channel. In her pivotal global role, Sheehan will lead the expansion of Traxo’s network of travel service partners. By leveraging Traxo’s innovative platform, partners can seamlessly integrate pre-trip data into the travel ecosystem, gaining unprecedented insights into both program-aligned and non-program-aligned travel bookings.
Traxo empowers partners to expand their market reach, increase their market share, and strengthen the value proposition they offer to their clients. Andres Fabris, CEO of Traxo, views partnerships as a vital strategic pillar supporting Traxo’s vision. He remarked, ‘We are delighted to welcome Rebecca Sheehan to Traxo. Her expertise in strategic partnerships will be instrumental in forging new alliances and fueling the success of existing partnerships within our ecosystem. Her proven track record across the travel industry aligns perfectly with our mission to enable customers to solve an urgent business need with full travel booking visibility. Rebecca’s appointment is a testament to our commitment to working with partners to deliver unparalleled value to our mutual customers.’
Sheehan brings a wealth of leadership experience gained from her tenure with some of the world’s leading travel brands, including Online Travel Agencies (OTAs), travel suppliers, and Travel & Expense (T&E) Software as a Service (SaaS) solutions. Her expertise lies in Go-To-Market (GTM) and distribution strategy, channel development, and travel product strategy. Notably, she spearheaded strategic partnerships at Emburse and oversaw the seamless integration of Emburse’s acquisitions of Roadmap and TRIPBAM. Prior to this, Sheehan held senior positions at SAP Concur, TripIt, Hotwire, and Starwood Hotels & Resorts.
‘Traxo is a game-changer, enabling companies to achieve full visibility into their employee travel,’ said Sheehan. ‘With the rise of NDC and the consumerization of travel, out-of-channel bookings are increasing. Companies need to manage this leakage for duty of care, spend optimization, vendor negotiations, and more. Traxo’s technology is the ideal solution to eliminate this substantial blind spot.’
