    ABOUT GESTURE

    Gesture is where technology meets humanity, a place where innovation, emotion, and impact collide. We're a fast-growing tech company using AI, machine learning, and intelligent logistics to power a first-of-its-kind platform that connects people and brands through real-world, tangible experiences. From our mobile app to our B2B Reach360 platform, Gesture blends data, emotion, and automation to build the future of human connection, at scale.

    Inside our headquarters, you'll find an environment that moves with the pace and precision of Silicon Valley but with the heart of something far greater. We run on cutting-edge tools, creative experimentation, and raw ambition. Every project, every relationship, every deal you close here matters because it's felt and experienced by real people around the world. At Gesture, you'll work alongside some of the smartest, most driven operators, engineers, and creatives in the industry, people who think big, move fast, and care deeply about the work they do.

     

    ABOUT REACH360

    Reach360 is Gesture's flagship B2B tangible marketing platform, built to help brands and institutions create real, memorable, and tangible connections with their audiences. In the Hospitality vertical, Reach360 delivers expertly curated physical experiences, including guest welcome kits, VIP arrival gifts, and loyalty and retention mailers, all designed to deepen the guest journey and drive engagement, loyalty, and measurable results. We do this through our tangible marketing solutions and proprietary AI platform. Our managed service pairs expertise with dedicated account management, giving clients a true partner at every stage.

     

    WHERE WE ARE HEADED

    Gesture is investing aggressively in AI-driven intelligence to power the next generation of marketing and commerce using a gift-centric approach. Our roadmap focuses on building intelligence that anticipates, adapts, and compounds: predicting intent, optimizing campaigns in real time, and delivering deeply personalized experiences driven by real-world behavior, through systems that continuously learn and improve with every interaction.

    This is not surface-level automation. We're building intelligence directly into the core of how our hospitality and gaming partners plan, deliver, and measure the guest experience at scale. At Gesture, you're not joining a static vendor. You're joining a team building the infrastructure for how brands and properties connect with guests in a post-digital-fatigue world.

     

    THE OPPORTUNITY

    We are seeking a curious, consultative, and relational Senior Account Executive, Hospitality to join the Reach360 team and drive growth across high level hotels, boutique hotels, and casinos throughout the United States. This is a role built for an independent, resourceful, and driven professional who thrives in a startup environment, brings a genuine passion for guest experience, and knows how to build pipeline, develop relationships, earn trust, and close business.

    You will own your territory, develop new relationships from the ground up, and serve as a solutions-oriented, creative problem solver for prospects navigating the complexities of guest engagement, loyalty, and retention. If you are the kind of closer who is competitive by nature, leads with empathy and insight, and is intentional about networking, this role is for you.

    • Accurate CRM records, pipeline reporting, and market intelligence shared with leadership

    WHAT THIS ROLE IS NOT

    Let's be clear:

    • This is not a role where leads are handed to you; you build your own pipeline from the ground up
    • This is not an order-taking or account-servicing-only position; you are expected to close, not just manage
    • This is not a role for someone who avoids travel, property visits, or in-person relationship building
    • This is not a role for someone uncomfortable being measured against a number

    • Communicate Clearly: Provide regular updates to Reach360 leadership on pipeline progress, deal status, and market intelligence

    In 30 days: You have a working command of the Reach360 platform, the hospitality vertical, and your assigned territory, and you've begun activating your existing network.

    In 60 days: You have a qualified, active pipeline in motion, with early deals in consultative discovery or negotiation, and a visible presence at relevant industry events.

    • A True Closer: You bring energy and conviction to the end of every sales cycle and know how to earn the commitment
    • Hospitality Insider: You have a genuine passion for guest experience and a strong understanding of the hotel and gaming landscape
