Mark, Andrew and Eliana each bring valuable industry experience and a fresh perspective to the business. I’m delighted to welcome them to the team as we continue to expand and enhance the accommodation solutions we provide.”

Strengthening Commercial Operations and Technology

As Associate Director, Commercial Operations, Mark Houston will focus on enhancing business performance, operational efficiency and customer experience across TheSquare and its MySquare owned and leased property portfolio. He will also lead the account support team which services travel management (TMC), relocation (RMC) and corporate clients.

With more than 20 years of experience spanning hospitality, serviced apartments, property and business operations, Mark brings expertise in commercial strategy, strategic partnerships, revenue optimisation and technology-led transformation.

Previously Director of Sales and Operations at Urban Chic and Senior Client Programme Manager at SilverDoor, Mark combines a strong understanding of the serviced apartment sector with a focus on using data, automation and AI-driven platforms to simplify processes and support scalable growth.

Expanding Property Acquisition and Supply

Andrew Davis joins as Head of Acquisitions, bringing extensive experience in real estate growth, investment and operations across the serviced apartment, build-to-rent, multi-family, matched lease and on-demand rental accommodation sector.

Previously Head of UK Real Estate and General Manager at Blueground, Andrew has led acquisition strategies, identified growth opportunities and overseen real estate operations in competitive markets. His experience across asset evaluation, management agreements, business development and operational performance will support TheSquare’s efforts to grow core inventory and strengthen its accommodation offering in key markets.

Developing a Luxury Accommodation Offering

As Senior Commercial Manager, Eliana Lisuzzo will lead the development of TheSquare’s luxury serviced apartment offering, creating opportunities to serve clients and guests seeking a more premium accommodation experience.

Eliana joins with extensive hospitality and commercial experience, including over 3.5 years as Regional Sales Director at Accor’s luxury private home rental brand, onefinestay. While there, she grew and strengthened relationships with EMEA travel partners and consortia agencies. Eliana’s background in strategic partnership development and delivering exceptional guest experiences will help shape the framework of this offering and its future introduction to booking partners and guests.

Together, the three appointments reflect TheSquare’s commitment to building on its global reach and established expertise while developing the people, property supply and capabilities needed to respond to changing client expectations.
