Job Description

Salary:

about us: battleface is building a humanity-focused travel insurance company to bring people and the world together. Why?

This position is for a team player with a strong customer base who also embraces innovative approaches to new markets. Using proven people skills and a passion for sales, the perfect candidate can balance maintaining current business relationships and securing new ones.

Previous experience in direct client sales and key account management roles

Travel Insurance background either in direct sales or within the travel industry strongly preferred. Traveltech, fintech or insurtech background is a bonus

Motivated self-starter, strong entrepreneurial and ownership mindset, and a positive, team-player attitude
