Overview
Met Global Mobility is a premium ground transportation firm. Our Boston operation is our flagship — fully owned fleet, in-house chauffeurs, 24/7 dispatch we run ourselves. It's where we've proven that owning the operation produces a different caliber of service than the national affiliate networks most corporate buyers settle for.
We serve clients in New York, Dubai, London, Tokyo and across five continents through a network of vetted affiliate partners held to Met Global's service standards. Now we're scaling the owned-operation model into New York — and hiring the first AE to sell ahead of that buildout.
The Work
You will build a book from the ground up. Direct prospecting, industry networking, and in-person client development. Your buyers are travel managers, executive assistants to C-suite, chiefs of staff, and office managers at AmLaw 100 firms, bulge bracket banks, hedge funds, private equity firms, Big 4 accounting, and the top consulting firms.
Deal sizes typically range from $50K to $300K in annual contract value — retainer and volume agreements on the higher end, event and roadshow contracts on the lower. You will source, pitch, and close these accounts yourself.
Responsibilities
You own your book. You build it, you close it, you keep it.

We don't read cover letters. We read specifics. Answer these as the person you'd want working for you would answer them — clearly, honestly, with evidence. Applications without real answers to every required question will not be reviewed.
Question 01 — The Hunter Narrative Describe a B2B deal you sourced and closed from scratch. Required
Please include: (1) who the client was (anonymize if under NDA), (2) the exact hook you used to get the first meeting, and (3) the final deal size. 3–5 sentences.
Question 02 — The Pitch Sell Met Global to a skeptical Travel Manager. Required
You're sitting across from the Director of Executive Travel at a bulge bracket bank. They already have a national affiliate network they've used for 10 years and they think their current vendor is "fine." Fine. How do you open the conversation — and what's the one point you want them to remember after you leave? 3–5 sentences.
Question 03 — The Network Check Describe your current professional network in NYC corporate services. Required
You don't need to name specific contacts — we're looking to understand the shape of your network: industries where you have warm relationships, roles you typically sell to, and how you've historically leveraged your network to open new doors. 3–5 sentences.
Question 04 — The Grit Check How much do you enjoy the hunt? Required
Rate yourself 1–10 on how much you enjoy cold prospecting and networking vs. managing existing accounts. 1 = I hate it. 10 = I live for it. Be honest — anyone who rates themselves below 8 will not move forward.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 I hate it I live for it Now describe the most recent day you spent primarily on cold outbound.
2–3 sentences. What you did. What happened.
