When was the last time you made a new friend? The quality of your relationships is the single most important factor for your mental health. Travel has a unique ability to fast-forward the friendship-making process, which is why we’re on a mission to create one million meaningful friendships using the power of travel and technology as a platform for human connection.
We create curated social adventures for solo travellers in their 30s, 40s and 50s. Since launching in 2014, we’ve seen impressive year-on-year growth and become the category leader in a thriving, rapidly expanding market with the majority of our business now in the US.
We’re well-funded, we’ve shaken up an outdated industry, and we see ourselves as a friendship company far more than a travel company. Our culture is down-to-earth, hard-working and compassionate, built by exceptional people who care deeply about doing work we’re proud of.

We’re looking for an experienced and target-driven Sales Expert to join our Sales team in the US!
As a Sales Expert, you’ll play a pivotal role in driving Flash Pack’s growth - engaging new customers across phone, chat and email guiding them through the buying process, handling objections with confidence and consistently exceeding conversion targets. You’ll manage your sales pipeline independently, including actioning follow ups, while also raising the bar for sales effectiveness across the team.
This is a high-impact sales role where you’ll connect deeply with prospective travellers, guide them through emotionally significant decisions and deliver outstanding results. At the same time, our sales function is evolving - we’re building stronger structures, playbooks, and best practices, so you’ll have the chance not just to succeed individually, but to help shape how we sell, to refine processes, and share insights that influence the way our entire team operates.
You'll have a set roster of hours with occasional flexibility to support team sickness, leave or peak periods. Please note these periods may fall on weekends, public holiday shifts, or evenings.
In line with our salary framework, the salary for this role is $49,000 to $53,000 USD per annum. You can earn $15,000 to $25,000 per annum in commission, though uncapped so you can always earn more.

If you have an additional accessibility or other requirement we haven’t considered, we will do our best to adapt and make sure your needs are met. Once you apply, you will be sent a short Equality, Diversity & Inclusion survey, it would help us immensely if you can complete it.
