Global Property Sourcing & Procurement Lead bei WiFi Tribe

Note from Diego, WiFi Tribe Founder:

I invited 7 internet strangers to spend a month living and working in my childhood home in Bolivia.

It was never meant to be a “business”. Just a group of friends traveling the world together.

It’s been 8 wild years…

Since that first trip, we’ve brought 2,500 nomads together in 80 cities to colive and cowork around the world, one month at a time.

Our work has sparked thousands of lifelong friendships, countless perspective-shifting conversations, hundreds of startup projects and career shifts, so many new romances, lots of weddings, a few babies, and an unimaginable amount of core memories.

What we do changes lives.

Not a little, but a lot and in every way you can think of.

If this excites you, keep reading to see if this might be the most perfect job ever created for you.

What is WiFi Tribe?

We believe that life wasn’t meant to be lived in just one place. That your best work can be done from anywhere. And, that everything is better when you have great people by your side.

We bring together great people from around the world to help them overcome the loneliness of solo travel, find true community wherever they go, and make their biggest travel dreams a reality, together.

We connect our members through:

  • 40 coliving/coworking retreats in exciting destinations,
  • a Slack community where members share advice and support each other, and
  • an exclusive app that helps members meet in-person anywhere in the world, and plan their next big adventure together.

WiFi Tribe is THE vetted community for driven professionals and entrepreneurs who seek long-lasting travel connections.

YOUR Mission:

The Tribe needs a home. Well, not just one. We need many. And all around the world.

At WiFi Tribe, we think a lot about our homes. They need to be comfortable for remote work, in good condition and have all the required amenities. But most importantly, our homes need to bring the Tribe together.

We need homes that are good spaces for a community to form.

Your mission—should you choose to accept it—is to find the Tribe a home wherever we plan to go. You will set up a global network of villas, houses, and apartments that keep the Tribe connected and productive. You'll ensure these homes reflect our attention to quality and care for community. You’ll be working closely with the founding team to achieve this vision.

You will be at the core of our global expansion strategies. You’ll source, negotiate, and manage property contracts and landlord relationships. The person we’re looking for will have excellent project management skills, experience negotiating complex deals in multiple languages, and will genuinely enjoy working in fast-paced teams.

Ideally, you’re located in the European/African time zone or be willing to work a schedule that overlaps with Asia, Europe, and the Americas. Hey… we did say it was global, right?

We don’t just want you to join the team, we want you to become a member of our community and travel side-by-side with our legendary members. If you’ll be finding the Tribe’s homes, well, you better start living in them and travel the world with us!

Who We Are (Our Culture)

  • We’re obsessed with this community. We have all chosen to join the team, first and foremost, because we love this community; a place where remarkable people from all over the world meet and shape their ideal lives together.
  • We’re a tight-knit team. We look out for one another, cheer each other on, and celebrate every win. We’re fully remote, and always bouncing around the world, but take every chance to meet up in person.
  • We’re as diverse as the United Nations. Our team of 13 represents 10 different nationalities! Many of us have become permanently nomadic global citizens, as we travel the world side-by-side with our members.
  • We’re small but mighty. Our small size is our strength. It helps us stay agile, creative, and united in the camaraderie of achieving our mission. We’re nifty, we’re inventive and we don’t give up.

  • We care. We take full ownership of our work because we take pride in everything we do. We care about how we show up and who or what we’re becoming. And of course, we care about our teammates and our community members.
  • We’re explorers at heart. We’re curious and adaptable, which is why each of us chose to take on this crazy challenge of building a global community and a startup at the same time. Everyone on the team has lived, worked, and travelled with the Tribe for at least a month – some of us for years. Joining this team means embarking on the biggest adventure of your career.
