Share job

Holidu is one of the world’s fastest-growing vacation rental technology companies. Our mission is to make booking and hosting holiday homes free of doubt and full of joy, by helping hosts generate more bookings with less work and helping guests find a holiday home they truly enjoy. Our team of 700 colleagues from 60+ nations shares a passion for tech, an ambition for constant improvement, and a relentless drive to bring the best experience to more than 40k vacation rental hosts and 4 million annual guests.

Your future team

You’ll be part of the Pré-sales France team, which is at the forefront of Holidu’s growth strategy. The team’s mission is to connect with vacation rental hosts across France, engage in warm, authentic conversations, and schedule high-quality meetings for our Sales Managers and, for selected hosts, to take that relationship further and support the sales process through to closing.


Your direct support and coaching will come from the Team Lead SDR France, and you will collaborate closely with peers and offices in France as well as international SDRs across the company. You'll use CRMs, coaching tools, and our tailored pitch scripts to guide your calls, always focused on sparking interest, building trust, and booking that first demo.

This is a temporary contract (CDD) for 12 months, starting ideally in September 2026.

The position is based in one of our French offices (Lyon, Bordeaux, Marseille, Strasbourg or Rennes).

Your role in this journey

Your goal is to create meaningful first touchpoints with vacation rental property owners (for both France and the Netherlands), and schedule meetings with our regional Sales Managers in France.

You will:
  • Reach out to hosts via phone to pre-qualify their needs and evaluate their initial level of interest in our offer.
  • Create trust and interest around Holidu's offering.
  • Use provided scripts to tailor your message based on the customer type.
  • Reach monthly targets of scheduled meetings.
  • Maintain accurate and structured notes in our CRM to ensure a smooth handoff.
  • For selected hosts, you may also support parts of the sales cycle through to closing.
  • Collaborate closely with your Team Lead, receive daily feedback, and participate in team meetings like check-ins and best-practice shares.

Your backpack is filled with

  • Near-native Dutch; high professional French and English.
  • Excellent communication skills.
  • Motivation to achieve goals and overcome objections.
  • A structured work ethic and strong self-organization.
  • Curiosity and openness.
  • Prior experience in sales, hospitality, or customer service are a plus.

Our adventure includes

  • Impact: Shape the future of travel with products used by millions of guests and thousands of hosts. At Holidu ideas become products, data drives decisions, and iteration fuels fast learning. Your work matters—and you’ll see the impact.

  • Learning: Grow professionally in a culture that thrives on curiosity and feedback. You’ll learn from outstanding colleagues, collaborate across disciplines, and benefit from mentorship, and personal learning budgets—with a strong focus on AI.

  • Great People: Join a team of smart, motivated and international colleagues who challenge and support each other. We celebrate wins and keep our culture fun, ambitious and human. Our customers are guests and hosts—people we can all relate to—making work meaningful and energizing.

  • Technology: Work in a modern tech environment. You’ll experience the pace of a scale-up combined with the stability of a proven business model, enabling you to build, test, and improve continuously.

  • Flexibility: Work a hybrid setup with 50% in-office time for collaboration, and spend up to 8 weeks a year from other inspiring locations. You’ll stay connected through regular events and meet-ups across our almost 30 offices.

  • Perks on Top: Of course, we also offer travel benefits, gym discounts, and other perks to keep you energized—but what truly sets us apart is the chance to grow in a dynamic industry, alongside amazing people, while having fun along the way.
