Who we are:

The Tripadvisor Group operates as a family of brands that connects people to experiences worth sharing, and aims to be the world’s most trusted source for travel and experiences. We leverage our brands, technology, and capabilities to connect our global audience with partners through rich content, travel guidance, and two-sided marketplaces for experiences, accommodations, restaurants, and other travel categories.

We offer the chance to work with the brightest minds in the travel business in an energetic, dynamic and international work environment focused on innovation, creative problem-solving and collaboration. 

 

Key Responsibilities:

Tripadvisor is seeking a Technical Account Manager (TAM) to join our Content Solutions business, where we operate like a startup inside a global brand. This is a unique opportunity to help build and scale a high-growth business line within a company trusted by hundreds of millions of travelers worldwide.

As TAM, you’ll own strategic and enterprise accounts end-to-end; from implementation and onboarding through renewal and expansion.

This role is a remote position in the United States with occasional travel to company offices as necessary.
