AirDNA began with a big dream in a balmy California garage in 2015. Since then, the technology startup has grown into the leading provider of data and business intelligence for the multi-billion-dollar travel and short-term rental industry, with offices in New York, Denver and Barcelona and team members around the world.
Our self-serve platform equips Airbnb hosts and property managers with the smart, competitive insights they need to succeed in an ever-evolving market. We also arm enterprise clients with custom reports and in-depth dashboards so they can scale and invest strategically. Our customers include hundreds of top financial institutions, real estate companies, vacation rental managers, and destination marketing organizations around the world.
We track the daily performance of over 15 million listings on Airbnb, Vrbo, and Booking.com across 120,000 global markets. Hundreds of thousands of partner properties further inform our proprietary algorithms, producing the most accurate and comprehensive short-term rental dataset in the world.
In 2024, AirDNA acquired Uplisting, a powerful property management software that helps hosts and operators manage listings across Airbnb, Vrbo, and other platforms. With features like channel management, automated messaging, dynamic pricing, task coordination, and financial reporting, Uplisting expands our mission to support every stage of the short-term rental journey — from investment to operations.
We are seeking a driven Account Executive to drive new customer acquisition for AirDNA's Advanced Data Solutions segment (excluding Property Managers). This is a full-cycle, quota-carrying sales role suited to an Account Executive with a proven track record of closing net-new business. You will own the sales cycle from prospecting through close, translating customer needs into clear, defensible data use cases, and building a pipeline of high-quality, renewable revenue.
Here's how you’ll make an impact:
- Consistently close ADS New Business deals against your assigned revenue target, and maintain at least 2x weighted pipeline coverage (minimum $200K in open pipeline per month).
- Build and protect a pipeline composed primarily of qualified ADS ICPs with clear use cases, proactively prospecting into strategic accounts when coverage or quality is at risk.
- Lead deep discovery conversations that surface real business drivers, and define one clear, defensible primary use case per deal.
- Confidently demo ADS solutions tied directly to each customer's use case, and clearly articulate AirDNA's value versus alternatives or internal data.
- Design deal structures that balance customer value with internal scalability, negotiating win-win outcomes without relying on steep discounts.
- Exercise strong deal judgment: escalate complex or non-standard deals early, and know when to walk away from opportunities that don't meet our quality bar.
- Maintain high CRM hygiene across your pipeline, accurate stages and close dates, clear next steps, documented decision makers and use cases, and MEDDPICC where applicable.
- Submit accurate weekly and monthly forecasts on time, maintaining at least 90% accuracy on committed deals.
- Build specialized expertise in the STR ecosystem, ADS products, and buyer personas, staying current on the trends shaping our customers' businesses.
- Ensure a smooth handover to Account Management or Customer Success, with clear notes and context so customers land well after close.
- Represent AirDNA at industry conferences and events, building your network and the brand's presence within the STR and ADS community.
Who you are:
- Strategic, highly accountable, and driven by unquestionable integrity
- Thoughtful but decisive, and able to consistently meet deadlines
- Team-oriented, with a growth mindset and genuine coachability
- Detail-oriented, commercially minded, and an active listener
- A quick learner who is organized, self-motivated, and able to prioritize your own work
- Self-aware, professionally mature, and empathetic in how you communicate and receive feedback
Here's what you'll need to be successful:
- 4+ years of full-cycle, quota-carrying sales experience (SaaS or B2B preferred)
- STR or Revenue Management experience (big plus but not required)
- Native-level fluency in English required (Spanish, French, Italian a plus)
- Strong communication skills with an ability to engage and persuade
- Demonstrated passion for sales with a hunter mentality
- Clear, confident negotiation skills (not afraid to close high-value deals)

- Self-motivated, goal-oriented, and comfortable working in a fast-paced environment
- Strong CRM hygiene (HubSpot experience a plus) and pipeline discipline
- Understanding of data and how it helps businesses make better decisions
- Experience creating pricing proposals, negotiating terms, and managing the contract process
Here's what you can expect from us:
- OTE range 110,000 - 120,000 EUR annually (50% base / 50% commission)
