Team mission

As a Senior Account Executive Lead you will report to our Head of Sales EMEA and lead a team of 10 Account Executives spread across Paris, Amsterdam, and Dubai offices. Together, they're on the front line of supply growth: prospecting, acquiring, and signing the region's best attractions and activity partners, building relationships that last, and turning every deal into a strategic supply advantage for GetYourGuide.

Your mission

  • Lead, coach, and develop a team of 10 Account Executives to consistently hit and exceed new supplier acquisition and revenue targets.
  • Build a disciplined operating rhythm: weekly pipeline reviews, forecast accuracy checks, activity and conversion dashboards, call coaching, and deal strategy sessions.
  • Drive sales process excellence: identify and scale opportunities across the funnel ( outreach tactics, pitch quality, objection handling, pricing/terms negotiations, pitch, deal cycle management)
  • Ensure high-quality CRM hygiene and data integrity; leverage sales tools and software (including CRM like Salesforce and sales enablement tools) for forecasting, capacity planning, and performance insights.
  • Partner cross-functionally with BizOps, Supply Marketing, Legal, and Finance to remove roadblocks, accelerate onboarding, and scale repeatable playbooks.
  • Lead hiring, onboarding, and continuous development of Bar raiser; foster an inclusive, high-trust, high-ownership team culture grounded in ethics and customer impact.

Your toolkit

  • 5+ years in B2B sales including 2+ years leading high-velocity new business teams (e.g., SDR/AE or field acquisition) with a strong record of exceeding targets.
  • Strong operational leader: builds repeatable systems, improves KPIs across the funnel (activity, conversion, cycle time, forecast accuracy), and scales best practices.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication in English; native-level fluency in French
  • Exceptional coach and communicator: uplevels objection handling, negotiation, and executive storytelling; runs effective deal reviews and call coaching.
  • Data-driven and process-oriented: comfortable with sales tools and software—including CRM (e.g., Salesforce) and sales enablement tools—for forecasting and performance management.
  • Skilled negotiator with a win-win mentality; comfortable creating constructive tension and closing complex, multi-stakeholder deals.
  • Deep curiosity and business acumen: ties proposals to ROI, efficiency, and risk; adapts messaging to supplier leadership.
  • Thrives in a fast-paced, international and entrepreneurial environment; models high ethics, resilience, and accountability.
  • Travel industry, marketplace, or travel tech experience is a plus; a relevant network in tourism is an advantage.

Extras that give you an edge

  • You’re energized by AI: You make time to work with AI, and you bring your team along. You build intuition through hands-on trials, help your team do the same, and turn what you all learn into real improvements to how the team works.

How we’ll make your career journey extraordinary

  • Annual personal growth budget and mentorship programs for continuous learning and development
  • Work from anywhere in the world for 30 days per year
  • A hybrid working approach with three days of in office collaboration (Mon, Tue, Thur) and two days of optional at home focus time.
  • Opportunities to collaborate and socialize with team members through quarterly team events and yearly company-wide events
  • Monthly transportation and fitness budget
  • Discounts for you, your friends, and family on GetYourGuide activities

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.
