Launched just a few years ago in spring 2017, WeRoad was founded based on our belief that when we get out of our comfort zones, travel to faraway places, and immerse ourselves in other cultures, we change our lives for the better. And that when we share the experience with like-minded people, we create memories and connections that last a lifetime.

Our mission is to design and deliver experiences worth living and sharing, rewriting the rules of the travel industry, every step of the way. We’re a dynamic, young, and hungry startup that’s experiencing exponential growth in Italy: in 2017 110 WeRoaders traveled the world with us and this number grew to 2.150 in 2018 and more than 8.000 in 2019. And we won’t stop here: this year, in addition to doubling our growth again in Italy, we’re taking WeRoad international for the first time with the launch of WeRoad Spain in Madrid!

ABOUT THE ROLE: SPAIN COUNTRY MANAGER

In just a few years we’ve reached incredible results here in Italy. The key to our success? Our ability to work on a million things at once - from product to content to technology to people - and to connect the dots in order to develop one single winning strategy, perfectly designed for our target.

As Spain Country Manager, your mission will be to build our brand and drive our business growth in Spain.

This role is for the ambitious and entrepreneurial. We will invest a lot in you and clear the way for your exponential growth: you will lead our strategy, operations and team in Spain!

What you’ll do:
Work with our leadership to define and deliver the business strategy for WeRoad in Spain
Oversee WeRoad Spain's business (at 360°) and establish operational plans designed to achieve business growth and profitability targets
Drive efforts to position our brand and build WeRoad's local presence and awareness in Spain
Define a strategy for building our customer base and Coordinator community in Spain
Build, train, and manage the WeRoad Spain team
Be the link between HQ and WeRoad in Spain in order to align the rest of the team with the overall WeRoad direction

What you’ll bring to the table:
You are Spanish, or have lived in Spain for several years and have expert-level knowledge of the Spanish language, culture, and market
You have a strong business background, and ideally experience working in startups and/or the tourism industry
You have experience managing complex, cross-functional projects in a fast-paced, high stakes environment
You have a strong results-orientation and top-notch analytical skills
You have outstanding networking skills and the ability to make partnerships happen
You have proven leadership skills and experience managing a team
You exercise excellent judgment and problem solving abilities

You will love working at WeRoad if:
You are ambitious and want to build and be part of something huge
You love travel and want to join a young, smart, and fun team of people who love it, too
You prefer adventure instead of daily routine and love working in a fast-paced, dynamic environment
You are an entrepreneur at heart and aren't afraid to get your hands dirty in order to get things done
You are a self-starter and aren't afraid to take on a lot of responsibility, right from the start
You welcome feedback and see mistakes as stepping stones to success
You want to grow faster than you thought possible, as a person and as a professional

Ready to apply? Get ready to send us your video!

We want to focus on the real you, beyond just your CV. That's why the first step to becoming part of our team is sending us a short video in which you introduce yourself and tell us something about you that we can’t gather by looking at your CV.

Let us know, in 3 minutes max:
Why do you want to work for WeRoad?
What are the first three things you would do to build our brand awareness in the Spanish market?
What are the biggest challenges you'll face in growing our business (group travel for millennials) in Spain?
Which of your previous experiences has prepared you the most for this role?

Feel free to send your video in Spanish or English - we speak both! Focus on content (not format), and have fun. When you’re finished, include the link (Vimeo, YouTube, Drive) in your application. We can't wait to meet the real you!
