About the Internship This is a rotational commercial internship embedded within Hosco's Industry team — the B2B engine serving hotels, restaurant groups, cruise lines, and all hospitality employers across EMEA and beyond. You'll rotate across three core functions: Market Research, New Business Sales Development and Customer Success. Where you spend most of your time will depend on your strengths, interests and the team's needs — we adapt to the individual. You'll work alongside Sales Executives, Sales Managers, Key Account Managers and Customer Success Managers, getting real exposure to the full commercial cycle from lead generation to renewal. You'll use the same tools as the rest of the team: Salesforce, Apollo, Lusha, LaGrowthMachine and LinkedIn Sales Navigator. This is not a shadow role. You will own tasks, be accountable for outputs and have a direct impact on revenue and client satisfaction from day one. What You'll Work On Market Research & Lead Generation (~20%) Identify, qualify and enrich target accounts across your assigned territory using tools like Apollo, Lusha and LinkedIn Sales Navigator. You'll build lead lists with contact data, firmographic details and relevant talking points, prioritised by leadscore, and assign them to the relevant Sales Executive or SDR. You'll also contribute to territory mapping and competitive intelligence to inform go-to-market decisions. New Business Sales Development (~40–60% depending on profile) Support the outbound pipeline by researching prospects, preparing outreach sequences in LaGrowthMachine, and helping Sales Executives qualify accounts — particularly companies with under 200 employees or in early pipeline stages. You'll learn to navigate Salesforce to track activity, update contact records, flag decision-makers and contribute to pipeline reporting and dashboards. You may also support demo preparation, proposal decks and ad hoc projects to improve the sales funnel. Customer Success (~20–40% depending on profile) Support the CS team with onboarding follow-ups, 6-month review preparation and renewal tracking for Gold clients. You'll help monitor account health signals, flag at-risk accounts, and prepare performance reports to share with clients during review calls. You'll get direct exposure to how we manage upsell conversations and how we measure client ROI on Hosco. What We're Looking For You don't need to tick every box — we care more about attitude than credentials. That said, the best candidates will have some of the following: Studying or recently graduated in Business, Hospitality Management, Marketing or a related field Genuine curiosity about B2B sales, SaaS, or the hospitality industry Comfortable working with data and spreadsheets — you don't shy away from a CRM Strong written and verbal communication in English and a second language at least — French, Italian, Spanish or Arabic are especially relevant for our markets) Organised, detail-oriented and autonomous enough to manage your own task list Bonus: any exposure to Salesforce, HubSpot, Apollo, LinkedIn Sales Navigator or outbound tools What You'll Get Hands-on experience across the full B2B commercial cycle in a fast-growing SaaS company Direct mentorship from Sales Managers and Customer Success Managers Real ownership — your work feeds directly into pipeline and revenue targets Access to the tools, playbooks and processes of a data-driven commercial team A front-row seat to how a scale-up operates in the HR Tech / hospitality space Barcelona office, international team, fast feedback culture Hosco is an equal opportunity employer.
