He most recently served as chief product officer of Pipedrive, following senior leadership roles at Intuit, and Procter & Gamble.
As CEO, he will be responsible for expanding Lodgify’s market presence, strengthening its product offerings and ensuring that even more hosts across the globe can maximise its success with the industry-leading property management system (PMS).
“Lodgify has made it possible for small and mid-sized vacation rental hosts to access powerful tools that were once only available to large property management companies,” he said.
“As the short-term rental industry evolves with changing traveler preferences, new regulations, and the advancement of AI, it’s more important than ever for these hosts to have the right tools at their fingertips.
“I’m honored to join such a talented team to build on Lodgify’s success and continue delivering the best PMS platform for hosts worldwide.”
“Hosts who operate one or a few properties are the backbone of the vacation rental industry, and many still struggle with fragmented tools and complex operations.
“We started Lodgify with the core goal — to empower these independent hosts to easily manage and grow their businesses,” said Dennis.
“Shaun’s customer-first mindset and deep expertise in product innovation make him the ideal leader to drive Lodgify’s next growth chapter, reinforcing our leading position.”
Lechá has a proven track record of scaling SaaS companies and leading high-growth businesses.
His expertise and strategic insights will further support Lodgify’s continued expansion and product evolution.
“Lodgify has already made a major impact in the vacation rental space by delivering best-in-class solutions that meet the needs of vacation rental hosts, but there’s still so much more ahead,” said Lechá.
“I’m excited to join as chairman of the board and support Shaun and the team as they continue driving innovation and democratizing tools for hosts to grow and succeed.”
