International Sales Director
Location: Traveling position throughout South America
Position Overview: SA-Trails is a groundbreaking new business operating in the tourism, real estate, and web services spaces.

By aggregating travel trends around the continent we are able to pin point areas in which our logistical and informational services may assist both present and future travelers. Our International Sales Directors are responsible for growing and nurturing a network of accommodation providers who assist us by incorporating the SA-Trails portal into their wi-fi and public computer access. The portal serves as our point of contact with thousands of travelers per day and increases the efficiency of operations for affiliate hostels while making the rest of the SA-Trails program possible. International Sales Directors travel the entire continent establishing relationships with independent hospitality centers of all kinds across a range of destinations, from Patagonia to Manaus, from Santiago to Columbia. If you like to travel, enjoy the company of travelers, seek to be part of an exciting and expanding company, and genuinely appreciate representing a quality service; this is the position for you.
