[Hiring] Local Host Advocate @Hipcamp

Role Description

Hipcamp is looking for a relationship-driven Local Host Advocate to help us build a new field sales channel in the Bay Area. This role is specifically for someone who already has relationships and credibility within the local agriculture and farm community. You’ll leverage your existing network to connect Hipcamp with farmers, ranchers, landowners, and other property owners interested in generating new income from their land.

You’ll spend your time:

• Meeting landowners in person
• Generating new leads
• Visiting properties
• Re-engaging hard-to-reach prospects
• Representing Hipcamp at local agricultural and community events

You’ll be compensated on an hourly basis, plus bonus eligibility for each new host you bring onto Hipcamp and successfully take live.

Qualifications

• Deep familiarity with the Bay Area agriculture/farm community — this is essential.
• 1+ year of sales, business development, or relationship-building experience.
• Strong communication, networking, and relationship-building skills.
• Self-motivated, entrepreneurial, and comfortable working independently.
• Persistent and comfortable with rejection.
• Valid driver’s license, reliable transportation, and verifiable full-coverage auto insurance.

Requirements

• Leverage your existing agricultural and local community network to generate new host opportunities.
• Build relationships with farmers, ranchers, landowners, and outdoor businesses.
• Conduct in-person prospecting, property visits, and sales meetings.
• Generate opportunities that wouldn’t otherwise enter Hipcamp’s digital sales funnel.
• Attend farmers markets, agricultural events, fairs, and community gatherings.
• Maintain your pipeline in our CRM and partner with the broader sales team.
• Share local market insights and identify opportunities for Hipcamp to grow.

Benefits

• Compensation will be competitive compared to similar-stage companies and based on location.
• Clearly defined goals combined with great people, empowerment, and autonomy create the best results.
• Inclusive and diverse teams working on an important cause can accomplish extraordinary things.
