Business Development, UK & IR (all genders)

Distribusion is the world’s leading ground transportation marketplace and gives travellers seamless access to ground transportation online, from search to ticket purchase. We have built a cutting-edge B2B technology platform that connects bus, rail, and ferry operators in 70+ countries with the biggest online retailers, including Google Maps and Booking.com.

We are shaping the future of travel and building the largest global network of transport providers and retailers. We are one of the fastest-growing startups in travel, backed by leading venture capital investors including TQ Ventures, Lightrock, Creandum, and Northzone, and are headquartered in Berlin, Germany. Following our recent $80m Series C funding, we are ready to push beyond.

As we expand our operations and offerings across Europe, we are looking for a Senior Business Development to lead our business initiatives in the UK & Ireland, focusing on acquiring and onboarding new bus and ferry partners in Italy, as well as managing relationships with the carriers and retailers in the region.

What you will do:

• Own the market P&L, build the market strategy and execute against the Business Plan.

• Lead the go-to-market strategy for which carriers and retailers we should partner with. Own the hunting and farming of these accounts.

• Grow and develop Distribusion’s global network of bus, rail, ferry and public transport operators across the region.

• Own end-to-end sales process: prospecting, lead generation, pitching, CRM maintenance, etc. Be proactive and do whatever it takes to get new carriers on our platform.

• Develop our Carrier portfolio and continue to expand our business across the UK & Ireland.

• Support cross-selling of an expanding suite of products and services into the transport operators (White-Labels, BI tools, Mobile Booking Solutions, etc.).

• Drive sales and revenue growth by securing high-impact partnerships that align with Distribusion’s strategic goals.

• Collaborate with internal teams, BizDev, Integrations, Product, and Finance, to develop tailored solutions and successfully onboard partners to our platform.
