About us
Founded in 2015 in Athens, Greece, Welcome redefines the way people travel by going above and beyond the commoditized transfer service and being the first company to deliver a complete, personalised, in-destination travel experience. From the moment a traveler arrives at a new destination, until their return journey home, Welcome accommodates all their travel needs, including transfers, sightseeing trips, and local information, in the easiest, friendliest, and most personalised way possible. Welcome's drivers are experts in the area and share their local know-how to make travellers feel at home wherever they are. The company has also introduced contactless rides, thorough cleaning protocols, and protective equipment to make every journey safe.

The Team
We are a group of vibrant, diverse people who love travelling and never settle on quality. Each one of us didn’t join Welcome by chance and believes deeply in what Welcome is trying to achieve, so we work relentlessly to make that happen. We challenge common logic, focus on design, put simplicity and usability first, and create memorable experiences. We keep learning and exploring better ways to serve our community and grow personally and professionally in our respective fields. We stay humble along the way, with a “pay it forward” mentality, but with big and bold goals.
As a Marketing Manager for Driver Supply Acquisition, you will own the engine that brings in the people who turn Welcome Pickups into an unforgettable experience for travellers. Your mission will be to build and operate a funnel that delivers qualified, relevant, and localized driver leads while keeping noise away from recruitment and ensuring the right drivers are matched to the right destinations, routes, and vehicle segments. You will run this engine across multiple channels, mostly digital-first and heavily digital in execution.
The funnel is powered by paid media, search, job boards, referral mechanisms, localization signals, and automated qualification flows, primarily across Meta, Google, LinkedIn, and scalable digital surfaces per destination.
This is a role with big responsibility and lots of ownership, where you’ll design systems that scale across cities and countries, automate decisions before humans have to, and make sure we grow supply without ever losing the human part that makes us different.
