VACANCY

We are excited to be recruiting a Sales Consultant for our European Sales team, a position which offers excellent prospects in a rapidly growing and award-winning tour operator. Our key requirement is someone who is passionate about, and experienced in travelling in, Europe.


THE POSITION

We have a strong heritage in Europe given that the initial proposition of the company was The Big Short Break, which focused a lot on Europe. Key regions of interest include: Italy, Greece, Portugal, Spain, France and Croatia. Detailed knowledge of the Nordic countries of Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden would be a big benefit.


We are also interested in sales consultants who have experience or passion for product. As the sales team grows, there will be possibilities to take on product responsibilities for one or two countries within the region alongside the vast network of product experts in our parent company in France.

 

As a company, our goal is to offer detailed itineraries, organised by true specialists, and delivered with a service that is above and beyond that being offered by any competitor. We seek candidates who feel they can support this vision.


This position is a very hands-on role and the successful candidate will be passionate about Europe, be highly organised, driven, be an excellent communicator, and clearly understand our customers’ needs. Remuneration and its related package will include a competitive salary and a range of benefits befitting such a position. We are inviting applications both externally and internally. Candidates need not be UK citizens.


MAIN ROLES

Providing high standard of sales and service levels for clients interested in holidays to your region; looking to develop as quickly while at the same time setting the example for the support level team in the company; selling holidays to clients in the most effective combination of conversion, service, knowledge and margin production and ultimately playing your part in ensuring that your team surpasses its targets.
