Job Description:

You will be in close contact with Donkey Republics’ partners (typically bike shops) and be in charge of ensuring their success at the same time as getting more partner leads to purchase our system. An important aspect is that we are working towards learning how to make our partners operational as fast as possible and how to make their bike fleets gain success and high utilization, this often entails making deals with hotels and other organizations in the travel industry.

We expect you to :

• Be interested in Sales & account management
