Remote Airbnb & VRBO Manager Europe and USA Remote
Budget: £18 – £36 GBP
I’m looking for an experienced short-term-rental professional who can run the day-to-day operations of several vacation homes listed on both Airbnb and VRBO. All work is fully remote, but you must be comfortable managing properties located across Europe and the USA, adapting to guests in multiple time zones.
Your core responsibilities:
• Guest communication – respond quickly to inquiries, screening, pre-arrival messages, in-stay support, and review follow-up.
• Booking & calendar management – keep both platforms perfectly synced, adjust nightly rates and minimum stays, and watch for gaps that hurt occupancy.
• Maintenance coordination – schedule cleanings, linen service, repairs, and emergency call-outs with local vendors; confirm work is completed and documented with photos/receipts.
What success looks like:
• 90-minute (or faster) average response time during waking hours for each target market.
• Occupancy and ADR meet or exceed last year’s figures.
• Zero double-bookings or guest arrival issues.
• Documented maintenance logs inside our chosen PMS or shared drive.
Tools & workflow:
I currently use the native Airbnb and VRBO dashboards plus a lightweight channel manager; if you already excel with Hospitable, Guesty, or Hostaway that’s a bonus—I’m open to migrating once we work together. Slack and Trello keep us aligned on tasks; payouts remain inside each OTA. Reliable internet and a quiet workspace are essential.
Ideal background :
You’ve managed vacation homes before, understand OTA ranking algorithms, and can troubleshoot common guest concerns without escalating every issue. Written English must be fluent; additional European languages are a plus.
If you’re proactive, organized, and ready to take ownership of these listings, let’s talk. Please share a brief summary of similar portfolios you’ve handled and your availability in CET or EST.
A good candidate is someone based in Europe or USA with very good English communication skills.
Working hours:
- 4 hours for part-time or 8 hours for fulltime
Timeline:
- Initial duration is 1 month with potential of getting extended
