HEADLINE: STARTUP CHANGING WORLD SEEKS AWESOME HUMAN BEINGS WHO KNOW FREQUENT FLYER TRAVEL AND HUSTLE.
We’re looking for a smart, dedicated operations associate with deep experience and passion for reward travel. Our ideal candidate dreams about the best current credit card offers and knows United Airlines’ award chart off the top of their head.
Maybe you’ve worked at a startup – but maybe not. You’re diligent, hard-working, and you learn quickly. You can think strategically, but understand that much of the work at this stage is in the details.
About us:
Jane on Main St. has an ever tightening budget and 19,000 miles orphaned across United and American Airlines frequent flyer accounts. Free reward travel is tremendously exciting – yet impossibly complicated, due to an ever-changing ecosystem of multiple programs and offers, airline alliances, and award redemption charts.
SlingShot is here to make it easy. We collect Jane’s preferred destinations, spending patterns, credit info and more across 20+ data points, then turn it into a custom-tailored, actionable plan to get her where she wants to go – for free, by applying for the most relevant, effective credit card out of a sea of hundreds.
We don’t stop there – after her first trip, we continue to help her optimize her personal finance and travel throughout the customer lifecycle, so that when she thinks travel, she thinks free travel, and when she thinks free travel, she thinks SlingShot.
We’re on a mission to help more people visit more places, expanding on a $30bn TAM as we show America that responsible use of credit can open the door to traveling the world.
We deeply believe that in an increasingly disconnected world, bridging cultures through travel is the path towards a more inclusive, peaceful world.
About our team:
SlingShot’s team is completely remote. We subscribe to Buffer’s ideology around transparency, culture, and location independence. We expect our folks to be the best, regardless of where they are and when they work.
What you’ll do:
As an early stage startup employee, you’ll have access to all parts of the business. Your primary responsibility will be putting together comprehensive plans for our users and consulting with them to answer any questions – this is where you will spend 90% of your time. But it doesn’t stop there – candidates who show strategic thinking and attention to detail will have input into operational processes, marketing campaigns, and more.
We use a full suite of tools and web apps to serve our clients – you’ll quickly learn the ins and outs of each platform, and come up with new suggestions to streamline systems.
About the position:
This position currently pays $15 an hour and starts part-time. The right candidate may have an opportunity for a full-time position within three to six months, depending on business needs and their skill set.
