Guesty appoints new chief financial officer

Gil Vassoly to focus on immediate growth and long-term market readiness

Short-term rentals platform Guesty has appointed Gil Vassoly as chief financial officer.

The appointment of Vassoly, who has more than two decades of experience in financial leadership, is intended to prepare the company for both immediate growth and long-term public market readiness.

He most recently worked at AI-powered customer service and enterprise software firm NiCE, where he was finance and operations executive.

Before that, he held senior roles at semiconductor capital equipment company KLA, where he managed finance and operations during a period of integration and expansion.

New York-based Guesty says Vassoly’s focus will be on supporting the platform’s growth, while evolving governance frameworks, enhancing reporting, and ensuring Guesty operates with ‘the same rigor and standard of excellence behind the scenes that it delivers to customers on the front end’.

Amiad Soto, Guesty’s co-founder and chief executive, said: “Gil’s appointment marks an important milestone for Guesty. His experience leading finance at global technology companies will help us operate with the discipline of a public enterprise while continuing to scale at speed.”

“As we expand our platform and global presence, having a CFO with proven expertise in compliance, governance, and investor expectations ensures we are not only building for today but preparing Guesty for the long-term.”

Vassoly added: “Guesty has established itself as the leading platform for professional property management, and the opportunity now is to build on that success by ensuring the company is financially and operationally prepared for its future.

“Guesty already has the trust of its customers, and we will continue strengthening the systems that inspire equal confidence from partners and investors around the world.”
