At YourParkingSpace (part of Arrive), we’re on a mission to transform the way transportation infrastructure is accessed, used, and monetised—making cities more liveable in the process. We’re now looking for an experienced Sales Director to take full ownership of our Transportation vertical—a strategic growth area at the very core of Arrive’s future.

This is not just another sales role—you’ll act as the General Manager of your vertical, shaping strategy, driving revenue, and building transformative partnerships with major transportation and travel operators. Airports, rail networks, freight hubs, and mobility authorities are all looking to reimagine the way they operate—and this role puts you at the heart of that change.

Why this role matters

You’ll define and execute the go-to-market strategy, deliver revenue growth, and lead a high-performing sales team to success. Just as importantly, you’ll act as the face of Arrive in the transport and travel ecosystem, driving adoption of our platform and unlocking new value for some of the most recognisable players in global travel.

We’re especially looking for someone with travel industry expertise

We’re keen to connect with leaders who already know the travel and transport landscape—whether through working with airports, airlines, rail operators, freight networks, or government authorities. Your insider knowledge of the industry’s challenges and opportunities will be crucial in helping us build deep, trusted relationships and drive adoption of our platform.

What you’ll do

  • Define and lead the go-to-market strategy for the transportation vertical
  • Own the commercial performance, including pipeline management, forecasting, revenue delivery, and retention
  • Build strategic, long-term partnerships with enterprise transportation and travel operators
  • Partner with Product & Technology to adapt platform capabilities to vertical-specific needs
  • Recruit, coach, and lead a high-performing sales team
  • Represent Arrive at key industry events, conferences, and roundtables
  • Work cross-functionally to ensure seamless onboarding and long-term value creation for clients

What you’ll bring

  • Proven background in B2B tech sales (SaaS, marketplace, or platform experience preferred)
  • Deep domain expertise in transportation, travel, or mobility
  • A strong track record of building and scaling vertical-focused sales functions
  • Experience managing P&L or vertical-level performance, consistently hitting commercial targets
  • Ability to influence and build credibility at C-level with industry leaders
  • A data-driven mindset with experience in Salesforce, HubSpot, or similar
  • Strong leadership skills, with experience scaling high-performing sales teams in a fast-growth environment

Why join us?

This is a rare opportunity to own and grow a business-critical vertical at a fast-scaling technology company making a real impact on how cities move. You’ll join a passionate, entrepreneurial team where your expertise in travel and transport will directly shape the future of mobility.

Arrive, including brands like EasyPark, Flowbird, RingGo, ParkMobile and Parkopedia, is a leading global mobility platform. Present in over 90 countries and 20,000 cities, the company helps people and decision-makers make smarter decisions about urban mobility and ease the experience of travel worldwide. Arrive delivers a unique combination of the core ingredients to make cities more livable: from smart payments and optimized car parks to data-driven traffic reduction and support for reinvestment in public transport and green space. It’s about more than function, it’s about saving time and simplifying the experience of travel for everyone. Travel is more than a journey, it’s how you Arrive.
