If you’re looking for a place to flex your operating range, be challenged, and serve our customers, come join us!

About the Role

Super.com is gearing up for its European expansion. We’re looking for a strong leader in travel who understands the European hotel market and can strategically and tactically execute on our Europe growth plans. You’ll help us establish a strong user base in Europe and drive profitable results for our travel business. You’ll use your deep understanding of European travel consumers to identify growth opportunities, and you’ll direct which markets we should focus on and how we should sequence our European rollout.

You’ll advise the rest of the travel business on how to succeed in Europe, and you’ll partner with our Supply team to unlock even better rates for our European customers.

You’ll report directly to our General Manager for Travel and will be an integral part of our success in Europe. Working hours for this role are flexible with some overlap of US Eastern working hours.
