Job description

Who are we?

We are a female-founded scale-up, currently made up of around 80 AltoVitians. Our fully-remote team hails from 26 different countries and collectively speaks 28 languages. Most of the time, it is our differences that are celebrated (whether they are in cultures, personalities, preferences or passions). However, despite those differences, there are a few principal attributes that we share which define an AltoVitian. AltoVitians are tenacious, humble, and thoughtful. Being humble is important because it enables us to keep learning every day, and tenacity is necessary because in a high performing environment as fast-paced as AltoVita, taking it slow is simply not an option!

Today is a particularly exciting time to join our team, we closed our Series A financing round in late 2022 and aim to close Series B in the coming year. This next chapter won’t always be a smooth ride, but it will be filled with innovation, excitement and opportunities, so if you are ready for the challenge (and the fun!) of growing with us, we would love to hear from you.

What we do

AltoVita is a multi-award winning accommodation platform that enables enterprises to consolidate accommodation programmes through the power of proprietary technology paired with a human centric approach.

AltoVita’s unique offering sets us apart in the market, providing a network of 7 million+ verified and vetted properties are all duty of care compliant, backed by a four-tier quality control process; located in over 35.000 cities & 165 countries world-wide. With our award-winning enterprise software and human-centric approach, we deliver smart and sustainable solutions to global talent mobility & business travel managers worldwide.

Our Client Development team plays a vital role as trusted advisors and partners to our clients. Embodying our consultative philosophy, this dedicated team proactively shares new market insights, analyzes data, and empowers our clients with the tools and knowledge to make informed decisions, ensuring our clients are always equipped to make the best choices for their corporate housing needs.

AltoVita’s technology provides a cloud-based bridge between the highly fragmented property distribution system and multinational Global 2000 companies. A proprietary two-way API integration with a standardised sourcing process reduces the legacy, inefficient 48-to-72-hour bidding process down to a few minutes, saving valuable time and money.

Corporate clients love the bespoke user interface seamlessly configured to their mobility policies, and employees enjoy a greater sense of choice and support in their relocation journey.
