The Role

Outdoorsy is seeking a Specialty Booking Coordinator to join our team in Austin, TX. This person will own and scale our high-value, complex booking channels: one-way rentals, long-term bookings, and group reservations. Currently, these specialized bookings require significant manual coordination, creating operational bottlenecks while representing substantial untapped revenue across our Wheelbase platform.

By facilitating just 8-12 specialty bookings per month (conservative estimate), this position will generate $150K-300K+ in annual revenue while delivering significant lifetime value to our professional rental operators.

The Opportunity

We're at an inflection point. Guests are asking for one-way rentals, long-term bookings, and group/event reservations—but we lack the infrastructure and dedicated resources to capture this demand efficiently. You'll build the playbook, own the relationships, and prove out these revenue channels.

Group event bookings are particularly important, as we look to expand our relationship with different industries to support events.

Who You Are

You're a logistics thinker who loves solving puzzles. You thrive on making impossible bookings happen, get energized by building relationships with operators, and understand how to balance customer delight with operational efficiency. You're comfortable in ambiguity and excited to build something from scratch. You are personally invested in the experience of our customers.

• Revenue-Driven: You understand that every booking you facilitate directly impacts both our business and our pros' success.
• Relationship Builder: You can quickly build trust with rental operators and become their go-to person for complex bookings.
• Operationally Savvy: You think in systems and processes, documenting what works so it can scale.
• Problem Solver: When there are 5 obstacles to a booking, you figure out creative solutions to all 5.

• Community builder: Excels in building strong relationships with new and existing partners.
