Travalyst is a non-profit organisation working to identify – and help bring about – the systemic changes needed in order for sustainable travel to be taken out of the niche, and into the mainstream.
We believe tourism can, and must, play a key role in achieving a sustainable future for our world; so we’re convening the key players, and catalysing the necessary action, to change the impact of travel, for good. We are committed to being a driving force that redefines what it means to travel, helping everyone explore our world in a way that protects both people and places, and secures a positive future for destinations and local communities for generations to come.
com Group, Tripadvisor, and Visa. We now have nine of the world’s leading companies and brands associated with travel working with us to make travel more sustainable.
What does successful project management look like at Travalyst?
As the Junior Project Manager at Travalyst, you will be key to ensuring the smooth running of the accommodation workstream that sets the framework that our partners use to provide consumers with information about sustainable travel choices. You will support the management of projects that have direct impact on Travalyst Industry Relations. More broadly, you will track our progress across our key initiatives, using your project management skills to ensure we deliver our objectives. You will work closely with the Project Lead, EA to the CEO, the Product Managers and the Head of Strategy & Impact to agree weekly, monthly and quarterly priorities which will accelerate progress towards our mission, both on a strategic and operational level. In particular, you will help administer specific projects, such as our Accommodation Certifications Initiative (where you will manage submissions from and follow up with industry bodies) as well as oversee and enhance the organisation’s tools and systems to ensure the team works as efficiently as possible. You will have previously worked in travel, technology or sustainability and will be comfortable supporting a team across multiple time zones.
Examples of the sorts of projects you’ll be supporting on include:
Our Travalyst Certifications Initiative within the Accommodation vertical Liaising with the certification bodies, scheme holders, and other relevant entities within the certifications ecosystem.
Overseeing our project management software, like Notion, and building out the whole project management system including documentation libraries and dashboards for internal use and reference.
Helping set up project plans, creating workflows and tracking progress, including managing documentation
Preparing and providing documentation to internal teams and key stakeholders, including doing some research to help develop ideas and move projects forward.
Work with the owners of the accommodation workstream, with more to come, to ensure that we have clear plans so that we develop sustainability frameworks in a timely manner
Work closely with the programme and partnership managers, as well as the senior leadership team, to identify project requirements, delivery timelines and costs
Identify and assign project tasks based on the skill sets, experience and strengths of staff and stakeholders, including teams at partner organisations
Develop, and keep updated, project status reports
Develop detailed project plans to guide both partner staff and the internal team, updating and revising these based on feedback and changing requirements
Where necessary carry out risk assessments and/or identify major issues that would block further progress
Evaluate the success of each project stage and share lessons or best practice with our partner organisations
Work effectively with a broad range of relevant stakeholders for efficient workstream development and implementation
We are not perfect, and pride ourselves by driving new learnings every day. We try new things, take risks, make educated guesses and move quickly. We aren’t dogmatic, but we believe in the tenets of agile development. Excellent communication and collaboration skills are a must. Our work and focus of activity are continually evolving, and we are a small team, so you can expect your tasks and projects to change to meet evolving priorities.
You might have worked in a project management role in travel before, perhaps deploying complex projects at one of our partner organisations or a similar large, multi-stakeholder environment. You will be passionate about making travel more sustainable and offering consumers informed choices.
Project management experience, preferably within the travel and/or sustainability sector and in a multi-stakeholder context
Experience of building and managing documentation systems
High attention to detail and the ability to effectively manage multiple projects at a time
Evidence of strong stakeholder engagement skills, both email and virtual meetings, and the ability to appropriately escalate issues when needed
Ideally you would have an understanding or experience with the technology that supports the travel industry, for example the global distribution systems
Working knowledge of accommodation sector would be an advantage (certifications industry experience would be an added bonus)
You may have a professional qualification, such as PRINCE2, 'Agile' project management etc, although practical experience with successfully delivering multiple complex projects is more important
A good command of English is essential
Self-starter with the ability to work with limited supervision, including a desire to work in a fast-paced, results-driven environment with varied responsibilities
Comfortable working in a virtual-office environment (familiarity with Google Workspaces would be advantageous). Highly motivated and productive in that sort of remote environment
Flexible, open to change and new information; A passion for sustainable travel
We also welcome applications from people who come from communities that are directly affected by the impacts of travel and tourism.
