Notre client

ICNEA is an international company specializing in the tourism sector. Their tourist accommodation management platform was founded in 2001 after years of research and development.

They offer a complete solution to their customers, responding to their needs with the application of new technologies.

The company, which started out in Barcelona, has now expanded throughout Europe (Portugal, Italy) as well as to countries in other continents such as Mexico and Dubai.

ICNEA’s goal

Looking for a Spanish and French-speaking Business Developer, Xavier from ICNEA called on the expertise of MisterBilingue - a recruitment agency - for their search.

The role involves managing and developing the French market with the sale of reservation management software for tourist accommodations.

This position is a real opportunity for a sales profile wanting to work in a previously non-existent market.

The job offered by ICNEA

Through this Business Developer position, ICNEA aims to establish itself in France.

The requirements for the job are the following:

  • Successful experience as a Business Developer, ideally in the SaaS and/or Tourism sector
  • Be a native French-speaker
  • Speak fluent Spanish
  • Be business-oriented, independent and proactive

Our support

MisterBilingue has been working with ICNEA since July 2023 to help them strengthen their team.

First, MisterBilingue conducts an interview with the candidate to better understand his or her profile and expectations. This is followed by a Spanish language test.

Next, a lengthy interview is held at ICNEA's Barcelona offices between the candidate, the company's CEO and a member of staff, so that the candidate can obtain a response to his or her application.

The multilingual talent proposed by MisterBilingue

To ensure that they found the ideal candidate for this position, Xavier and Γ‰milie regularly exchanged information on this recruitment mission. They finally found the profile that best matched the position: Tiphaine D., bilingual in Spanish and French.

She has an in-depth knowledge of the hotel business, having devoted her entire studies and career to it. In her previous position as Marketing and E-commerce Sales Manager, she was able to set up partnerships with OTAs. She is therefore familiar with the challenges associated with PMS and OTA partnerships in accommodation management.

She has also developed her language skills thanks to her many trips and stays abroad. Through her experiences, she has developed into a results-oriented, hard-working person who places empathy and listening at the heart of her work.

Tiphaine joined the ambitious and dynamic ICNEA team in August 2023 as Business Developer France!
