Responsibilities

Role Overview: What You’ll Be Doing

As a Director, Sales and Service, you are responsible for driving new member acquisition and overseeing the commercial and service experience for a defined book of business. You partner closely with the VP, Sales and Service and Flight Services Managers (FSMs) to ensure members receive a seamless, premium experience while maintaining accountability for growth, retention, and overall client satisfaction.
