🌍 Redefining how people live.

At Blueground, we believe that when your base is reliable, the world opens up. That’s why we’re building the world’s leading platform for living.

Every year, 350 million people move between cities—yet today’s housing options haven’t caught up with the needs of this modern, mobile generation. Blueground was built to change that.

With 40,000+ homes across the globe, available for stays from a few days to a year or more, we’re just getting started. We’re on an exponential growth path to redefine living and create an entirely new category. Our edge? Powerful proprietary tech, operational excellence, and a team that executes with speed and discipline.

Our culture is grounded in five principles:

• Guests First – Every decision starts with their experience.
• Move Fast – We value speed, momentum, and action.
• Dive In – The magic is always in the details, and we go deep.
• Embrace Change – Change isn’t a disruption; it’s how we grow.
• Keep It Honest – Transparency accelerates progress—and strengthens relationships.

If you’re ready to do the best work of your life and help reshape how the world lives, we’d love to meet you.

• Deal Negotiation: Structure win-win leasing partnerships, overseeing deal terms, lease execution, and property onboarding.
• Cross-functional Execution: Collaborate closely with internal teams (Legal, Ops, Finance, and Launch) to ensure seamless handoff and successful unit activation.
• Team Leadership: Mentor and manage junior Real Estate Associates, supporting team performance, development, and local strategy alignment.
• Policy Awareness: Stay ahead of local regulations and public policy to ensure portfolio compliance, risk mitigation, and strategic advantage.

• Sharp analytical thinking—comfortable with market data, pricing strategy, and financial modeling
• Strong local market knowledge of Central Paris real estate and an existing network is a big plus
