About the role

Nowadays is redefining hotel sourcing - and we’re looking for entrepreneurial Account Managers to join our growing agency team.

As an IATA-certified agency, our team earns industry-standard hotel commission rates of 7–10% on actualized event revenue. This translates to hundreds to over $1M+ in commission alone, depending on the size and frequency of events managed. With our tech-driven tools and high-value client base, your earning potential is limited only by your ambition.

About Us

We’re a sister-led, 100% woman-owned company managing over $10M+ in annual event budgets. As an IATA-certified agency, we’ve planned events across the globe - delivering premium experiences backed by tech-powered sourcing and operations.


Why Join Nowadays?

  • Earn More: Retain 50% commission on all actualized events you source or manage.
  • Smart Tools: Use the Nowadays platform to streamline hotel research and sourcing (e.g., “Which hotels in Chicago have 50+ guestrooms and 3+ meeting spaces?”).
  • Unlimited Income: Upsell services like planning, design, and event management for additional earnings - with no quotas, caps, or limits.
  • Work from Anywhere: Operate as a 1099 contractor with full flexibility and no geographic restrictions. Whether you’re at home or abroad, your work travels with you.
  • Insider Perks: Get access to FAM trips and exclusive hospitality experiences through our network.

Key Responsibilities

  • Serve as the main point of contact for high-value event clients.
  • Translate client goals into detailed plans for hotel sourcing and full-service execution.
  • Provide strategic guidance on destinations, hotels, and vendor partners.
  • Manage timelines, budgets, and the complete event lifecycle.
  • Conduct virtual site tours and lead compelling proposal presentations.
  • Build and present professional proposal decks with budget comparisons.
  • Maintain client satisfaction and drive repeat business through proactive relationship management.

Compensation

  • Commission-Based: Earn 50% commission on all actualized revenue from your events.
  • Bonus Income: Upsell planning, design, or site management services for additional pay.
