Remote Account Executive LATAM at Teachable — Columbus
Traveler-Friendly Insight
Remote-First with Flexibility: Teachable operates as a remote-first company, which is a solid foundation for location-independent work. However, this Account Executive role targets the US/LATAM region and requires active sales engagement — including discovery calls, contract negotiations, and stakeholder management — meaning some timezone alignment with North American and Brazilian business hours (roughly UTC-3 to UTC-5) is practically necessary.
Timezone Considerations: If you're a nomad based in Europe or Southeast Asia, be aware that US Eastern business hours (9am–6pm ET) could conflict with your preferred schedule. The LATAM angle actually makes destinations like Medellín, Colombia (UTC-5) or Buenos Aires, Argentina (UTC-3) ideal bases — you'd be working in near-perfect timezone alignment while enjoying a lower cost of living.
- Medellín: ~$1,200–1,800/month comfortable living; Colombia offers a Digital Nomad Visa (up to 2 years).
- Buenos Aires: ~$1,000–1,500/month; Argentina has a Digital Nomad Visa valid up to 6 months.
- Lisbon, Portugal: ~$2,200–2,800/month; Portugal's NHR tax regime suits remote workers, but timezone (UTC+1) stretches US hours.
Travel Perks: In-person team events throughout the year may require occasional travel to New York or other hubs — factor this into your base selection. No explicit coworking or equipment stipend is mentioned.
