Hyatt Appoints Adam Rohman as Head of Americas

Hyatt Hotels Corporation has announced the appointment of Adam Rohman as Head of Americas, effective July 1, 2026. He succeeds Pete Sears, who is retiring after a nearly 40-year career with the company.

In his new role, Rohman will oversee operations across Hyatt’s Americas region, including hotels within the Classics, Essentials, and Luxury portfolios. He will also lead global brand strategy for the Classics and Essentials portfolios.

Adam Rohman currently serves as Senior Vice President, Investor Relations, Global Financial Planning & Analysis, and Treasurer at Hyatt. With over two decades at the company, he began his career in on-property finance roles and progressed through a wide range of finance and operational leadership positions.

His previous leadership roles include Senior Vice President of Finance for the Americas and Global Head of Asset Management, where he contributed to strategic growth and operational performance.

Mark Hoplamazian, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Hyatt, said, “Adam is a highly respected leader with deep knowledge of our business, strong relationships across our organization and a proven track record of disciplined, strategic leadership. I have great confidence in Adam as he leads the Americas region into its next chapter and continues building on the foundation firmly established under Pete’s leadership.

Adam understands our business deeply and appreciates the importance of strong relationships with owners, operators, guests and colleagues. His thoughtful leadership style and commitment to Hyatt’s culture position him well for this role.”

Pete Sears will work closely with Rohman to ensure a smooth transition and will continue to support Hyatt in a Senior Advisor capacity for a period after June 30. Meanwhile, the company has initiated a search for Rohman’s successor.
