We help hotels make more money.

(Revenue management, if you're into labels.)

Our clients are all over the world.

Our team? Remote-first.

But now we're building a home base in Manila.

Admin. Ops. Marketing. Support.

20 brilliant people by end of 2026.

And that starts with you.

You'll Be HR Hire #1

Literally.

You'll build the office, the culture, the team.

No dusty policies. No corporate tape.

Just a clean slate and our full trust.

You'll Do Things Like:

  • Hire smart people across admin, marketing, ops & support
  • Build onboarding that actually helps people (not a PDF maze)
  • Set up payroll, benefits, contracts the boring-but-crucial stuff
  • Shape the culture from the ground up
  • Be the go-to for our remote revenue managers when they need help


You Should Be Someone Who:

  • Has built teams before (or really wants to)
  • Gets sh*t done without needing a playbook
  • Is organised but flexible
  • Speaks fluent Google Drive
  • Has experience in Philippine labor law
  • Likes people and knows how to work with them (even the tricky ones)


You'll Work Closely With:

Our founder

Our global remote Revenue Managers

Our future Manila teammates (who you'll help hire)

The Perks

Competitive salary.

Flexible hours.

Real autonomy.

And a chance to say: I built that.

Start date: As soon as we find you.

Location: Manila (this role is in-office and remote in the beginning).

Sound like you?

Don't overthink it.

Send your CV or LinkedIn

Or just write us something short that shows us who you are.
