The Role
About VacationRenter
VacationRenter is the fastest growing vacation rental search engine. We love vacation rentals, but not how time-consuming and complex it can be to find the right one. So we reimagined a better way. We eliminated the need to search across several different sites and scroll through pages of irrelevant results just to find the perfect home away from home. We bring all the rental options from the leading travel sites together in one place and showcase only the best results.
VacationRenter was founded in 2018. The company recently announced driving over $1 billion in 2020 gross bookings only two years after launch, making it the fastest growing travel company, ever. It’s also one of the fastest growing websites, across any industry – SimilarWeb named the company one of the 100 fastest growing websites of the year in 2020.
VacationRenter was born inside Wilbur Labs, a startup studio. Founded by ex-Googlers, VacationRenter uses automation and AI to help travelers find the perfect vacation rental.
