Ha Giang Experts is hiring for its sales team — first round: 2 people
Based in Ha Giang · Housing and meals provided · Female candidates preferred · Applications open year-round
Who we are
Ha Giang Experts is an exploration travel company based in Ha Giang, set up by the founder of MotoTours Asia together with his partners. He has spent 30 years organising and personally leading exploration journeys, from the Ha Giang border patrol roads to Tibet and Everest Base Camp, the Silk Road, the Karakoram and a 60-day Hanoi–Portugal ride. Our journeys have been written about by the South China Morning Post, Al Jazeera, the BBC, Nikkei Asia and Travel Weekly Asia.
We do not sell Ha Giang the way other companies do. We ride village tracks, sleep in local homes, eat what the village eats, and work to one mission: awakening potential, developing communities.
We are expanding at the end of 2026: tour operations run from September 2026, and Ha Giang Hub welcomes guests from October 2026. We are building our sales team at the pace of real bookings: two people first, more as bookings grow — and we are looking in Hanoi, in the South and right here in Ha Giang — anyone who came to Ha Giang once and never stopped thinking about it.
1. International sales executive (inbound) — 1 position
- Advise international guests and close bookings by email, WhatsApp, Instagram and the booking form on our website.
- Design tailor-made itineraries, quote them, follow deposits and payments.
- Look after guests before, during and after the tour; build up reviews and returning guests.
- Work with agents and partners abroad.
- Requirements: at least 2 years in travel, inbound preferred · fluent spoken and written English · able to write a sales email in English · comfortable with everyday computer tools.
2. Domestic sales executive — 1 position
- Sell tours to Vietnamese guests: buckwheat flower season, family groups, corporate groups, motorbike groups.
- Develop agents, freelance sellers and domestic communities.
- Sell rooms and services at Ha Giang Hub; help look after staying guests.
- Requirements: at least 2 years in travel · good conversational English, fluency preferred · existing industry contacts in southern Vietnam are a strong advantage.
3. Positions opening next
As bookings grow we will open a second international sales position, then an international sales team lead (at least 3 years in tourism, team or channel experience, fluent English). Applications for these two roles are kept on file and we will contact you when they open.
Pay and conditions
| Experience in tourism | Guaranteed monthly pay | Monthly package at target |
|---|---|---|
| 2 to under 3 years (level 2 — starting level) | 10,200,000 VND | 12,000,000 VND |
| 3 to under 5 years | 11,200,000 VND | 13,000,000 VND |
| 5 to under 8 years | 11,400,000 VND | 14,000,000 VND |
| 8 years and above | 11,400,000 VND | 15,000,000 VND |
| Sales team leader | 11,400,000 VND | 18,000,000 VND |
- New hires start at level 2. Candidates with 3 years or more are assessed individually for a higher level, agreed before signing.
- Bands are set by years worked in travel and verified against your social insurance book — not by impression. The pay scale is posted at the workplace as required by Article 93 of the Labour Code, so everyone knows which band they are in and how many years the next one takes.
- The guaranteed amount is paid in full every month: position salary plus a 1.2 million location allowance. The rest of the package is a revenue-target bonus paid on cumulative target achievement — partly from 85%, in full from 100%; paid in full from September to December each financial year. Pay is never cut.
- Sales commission sits outside the package and has no ceiling. It is calculated across three sources: guests you find yourself, guests through partners, guests from company advertising. Guests you find yourself earn the highest rate.
- Accommodation and meals are provided by the company for anyone whose permanent residence is more than 100 km from Ha Giang Hub — worth around 8 million VND a month.
- 13th-month salary equal to one month of base salary for your level (9 million VND at level 2), paid before Lunar New Year. Two further bonuses depend on results, are decided each year and are not guaranteed: a company-wide year-end bonus paid at Tết when the year’s results allow, and a sales-team bonus when revenue exceeds break-even.
- Social insurance and health insurance as required by law.
- One tour or survey trip with a group every month: you sell roads you have ridden yourself.
- Trained directly by the founder — 30 years of organising exploration tours in Vietnam and abroad.
One number, plainly. At starting level, your monthly package in Ha Giang equals a colleague at the same level in Hanoi: 12 million VND. In Hanoi, after rent and food, about 4 million is left; here the company covers both, so you keep the full 12 million.
The truth about this job — read this before you apply
- The workplace is thôn Châng, Ha Giang — not a city office. You will live here.
- Winter is cold and damp. The high season is relentless.
- The internet is good enough to work on, but what is around you is nothing like Saigon.
- European guests are in another time zone; some evenings you will be answering them.
- Weekends and public holidays are when most bookings come in — there is an on-call rota.
- Going out on the road is part of the job, not a reward.
- We expect you to stay at least 24 months. If you are looking for a few months of experience, this is not the place.
- Commission only arises when company revenue exceeds break-even. We are in our first year, so the first months may bring no commission — plan on the guaranteed pay and the package, not on commission.
In return, you get
- A real trade, learned from someone who has practised it for 30 years.
- A seat while the machine is still being built: whoever joins today is the management layer 24 months from now.
- Living in one of the most beautiful parts of Vietnam — not visiting it, living in it.
Priority
We give priority to women candidates, to people who have already been to Ha Giang, and to people who can start in November 2026.

How to apply
Send your CV together with short answers to these three questions to hr@hagiangexperts.com, with the subject line “Application [role] – [your name]”:
- Have you been to Ha Giang? If you have, tell us briefly about one trip.
- Why do you want to leave the south of Vietnam to live in Ha Giang?
- What worries you most about living in Ha Giang?
Candidates who reach the final round are invited to Ha Giang for three days to see with their own eyes where they would live and work before signing anything: staying in the room you would have, eating the meals you would eat, riding a real stretch of road, and working beside the team for a session. We cover food and lodging for those three days and reimburse one-way travel once both sides have signed the contract.
