Associate Relationship Manager
Chicago, IL Relationship Management
Job Type
Full-time
Description

 

Who we are: 


Well, we definitely aren’t Google. 


AmTrav is, firstly, a growing business travel management company with an emphasis on the personal. We bring people together and help people get more done. How? By using superior technology to disrupt our legacy industry and bring it into the 21st century, without sacrificing the human touch. Really. Here at AmTrav, we don’t like to mince words or try to be anything other than what we are. And what we are is unconventional, unique, brazen, and a good time (if we do say so ourselves). 


Working with us isn’t likely something you’ve experienced before. We’re laid back and welcoming, with a firm grasp on results-driven work. We don’t want to hold your hand or look over your shoulder, but we expect the greatness that we know is in you, and exists in everything we do. That might sound a little dramatic, but we take our work seriously (we just think it doesn’t have to always feel so serious).
