Supply Services Operations Lead
at Airbnb
United States
Airbnb was born in 2007 when two hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to over 5 million hosts who have welcomed over 2 billion guest arrivals in almost every country across the globe. Every day, hosts offer unique stays and experiences that make it possible for guests to connect with communities in a more authentic way.
The Community You Will Join:
Every day, Airbnb hosts offer unique stays, experiences and services that make it possible for guests to connect with communities in a more authentic way. Since our founding, more than 5 million hosts have welcomed over 1.5 billion guest arrivals in almost every country across the globe.
Airbnb Services offer guests access to vetted local experts who provide a wide range of offerings—including meals, wellness, photography, and more— to elevate the travel experience. By creating a trusted marketplace for quality services, Airbnb empowers travelers to make every trip memorable while opening new opportunities for hosts to showcase their unique skills.
