Partner Advocate - Western US

About Stash

We’re a small company with a big mission: to bring independent travelers and independent hotels together.  To honor the idea of meaningful travel, and to make it as easy to stay at an amazing, one-of-a-kind hotel as it is to stay at a cookie-cutter chain.  That’s why Stash Hotel Rewards was born.

We’re in the travel business, so travel is one of our perks.  Stash employees can stay at some of the best independent hotels in the U.S. for next to nothing. Which is easy to do, since we have no set vacation policy.  We hire responsible people who get the job done on time, so we don’t need to watch over them.

Our environment is casual and flexible — you’ll find us working from homes, coffee shops, and satellite offices around the U.S.  Our comprehensive benefits include a competitive salary, health and disability insurance, stock options and a 401(k) plan.

We seek people who are autonomous, creative, super-smart, and fearless.  And let’s not forget nice. We’re a close-knit group who love to see each other—and our partner hotels—succeed.
