At Houst 🏠, we make hosting hassle-free. From Lisbon to Auckland, we’re transforming the short-term rental space through smart tech, strong partnerships, and a focus on host happiness. Since 2015, we’ve helped thousands of property owners unlock new income – and we’re only getting started.
We’re now hiring a Senior Sales Manager to lead both our core Sales and Partnerships departments. Previously split into two teams, we’ve decided to consolidate under a single player-manager – someone who can lead from the front, contribute directly to revenue growth, and drive performance across both areas. This role is critical to our next growth phase, and we need someone with serious sales ability, leadership presence, and a roll-up-your-sleeves mindset.

- Previous success as both an individual contributor and team leader
- Proven ability to hit and exceed targets in a fast-paced, high-growth environment
- Strong communicator who leads by example and motivates others
- Organised, adaptable, and hungry to grow with the business
