The posting

At Flix, we offer a dynamic work environment with competitive pay, strong growth opportunities, and a tech-driven approach to making travel more accessible, sustainable, and affordable.

We're looking for a Head of Airport Business Development to lead the launch and expansion of our airport shuttle business across North America. In this role, you'll identify strategic airport partnerships, secure access, shape the product, launch the first lines, and build the business case for growth. Think of it as running your own business within Flix. You'll set the strategy, drive execution, and scale the business with support from our Global Airport Business team and local leadership.

About the Role

  • You build our North America airport shuttle business. You own the P&L for airport lines in North America, know the numbers, spot problems early and bring clear proposals to leadership
  • You set the airport strategy for North America: which airports to go after and in what order. You own the long-term plan (LTP) and the business case for each airport
  • You win airport access: build relationships with airport authorities and partners, lead tenders and negotiations, and close agreements
  • You shape the product: what the airport service looks like, including stops, schedules (with Network Planning), on-site sales, ticketing, signage and partners
  • You launch and prove it: get the first airports live together with Operations, Network Planning and Marketing, track results against plan and fix what does not work
  • You build the team: you start with one team member and grow the team once the model is proven
  • You report to the Global Airport Business team, with a dotted line to the North America CEO

About You

  • 8+ years of experience, including time where you built a business, market or business line from zero, e.g. as GM, launch lead, market launcher or expansion lead
  • Experience in mobility or transport (bus, shuttle, rail, car rental, ride-hailing, micromobility or similar). You understand operations and unit economics
  • Strong analytical skills: business cases, P&L thinking, clear decision papers. A consulting or strategy background helps but is not required
  • You work independently with little guidance: you set your own priorities and get things moving
  • You are credible with senior people, from airport executives to our board
  • Based in North America and happy to travel often
  • A plus: experience with North American airports (authorities, concessions, RFPs/tenders, ground transport rules)
  • A plus: experience in a fast-growing or international company, or with offline sales, on-site ticketing or out-of-home advertising

Salary Range: $130,000 - $150,000 USD base

We recognize that everyone carries a unique set of valuable skills and experiences. If you think you could have an impact even though you don't meet 100% of the requirements, we still encourage you to apply. We want to hear from you!

What We Offer

  • Comprehensive Wellness Coverage – Competitive Medical, Vision, and Dental plans, including multiple FSAs (Health and Dependent Care).
  • 401(k) Matching – 401(k) plan with up to 4% company matching contributions.
  • Flexible Time Off – Take time off when you need it, as you need it, subject to business needs and manager approval.
  • Paid Parental Leave – 8 weeks of fully paid leave to support new parents and growing families.
  • Company Paid Life Insurance – Basic company-paid life insurance equal to your annual salary.
  • Lifestyle Spending Account – Receive up to $600 per year for eligible lifestyle-related services.
  • Tuition Support – Up to $5,250 per year reimbursed for your continued education and development after 12 months of continuous service.
  • 24/7 Employee Assistance Program – Free, confidential support for mental health, legal, financial, and family issues, including up to 5 free counseling sessions per year.
  • Work from (M)Anywhere – Depending on your role, work from another location for up to 60 days per year.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
