EXPERIENCE REQUIRED:

You will have solid previous experience of working within a travel agency, selling a variety of Tour Operators. Whilst they cater for a wide variety of holiday requests they are keen for someone to join them with solid short-haul knowledge. You have already experienced working from home, so that you know you can be self-sufficient and pro-active, home working doesn't work for everyone, so this will be something you have already done. You will be great at building relationships and be someone who likes to bring their ideas and additional skills to help impact the business in a positive way. You will become an integral part of the work family as the company knows, so this kind of collaborative approach will appeal.

ABOUT YOU

Personable and positive, you will have the attitude that you will 'make things happen'. You'll have to wear many hats and be able to adapt to a fast paced environment, where every day brings new challenges and rewards Salesy is not their style; you'll be a great listener with knowledge and passion for travel and your enthusiasm and ability to get it right for your client, will mean the want to buy from you time and again.

INTERESTED?
