Account Executive - job 1 of 2

Hi! 👋 I’m Luke, from LA in the US 🇺🇸, Sales Director for the US, LATAM, and APAC markets here at WeTravel.

I’ve been with WeTravel since the early days and have had the chance to see the company grow through many exciting phases. It’s been an incredible journey — and now, with nearly 100 Account Executives across the globe, I’m more excited than ever about what’s ahead. My mission is to build a strong, talented, and mission-driven sales team that’s passionate about helping group and multi-day travel businesses thrive. We’re growing fast, and I’m looking for someone who’s ready to roll up their sleeves, connect with amazing clients, and help us scale the US market even further.

If you’re someone who loves fintech, has a natural curiosity, and thrives on building relationships—you’ll fit right in. Together, we’re building more than just a team—we’re building the future of travel tech.

How We Work

Our team thrives on energy, ownership, and results. As an Account Executive, you’ll manage the entire sales cycle: from initial outreach, to discovery calls and product demos, all the way through closing and handoff to onboarding.

We take a consultative approach, focused on understanding each client’s unique challenges. Our clients are small-to-medium-sized multi-day tour operators, often run by passionate entrepreneurs who wear many hats. That means you'll have a real impact—helping them grow and simplify their operations through our all-in-one platform.

We use tools like HubSpot to keep things organized and scalable, and we support each other through collaboration, feedback, and shared wins.

• Have some experience in inside sales via emails and calls.

• Don’t enjoy high-volume outreach or cold calling.
