Job Description
An exciting opportunity to start your career in tailor-made travel at a young, dynamic company with flexible working and fantastic travel opportunities.

The role would primarily involve organising bespoke trips to southern and eastern Africa, so any travel in or knowledge of these regions or the safari business would be an advantage. However, we don’t require any previous experience in sales or in the travel industry and we are ultimately looking for an enthusiastic, adaptable individual who is passionate about travel and willing to learn.

Primarily based in Bristol in a supportive office environment, you will also have the opportunity to work closely with the company’s Sales Director in London, shadowing and assisting him to gain experience of building bespoke itineraries, learning about the destinations, talking to customers, liaising with suppliers and dealing with problems or emergencies that crop up along the way. This is a full-time role split between home and office working, time in the office isn’t expected to be more than 3 days a week, with the opportunity to work with complete flexibility after completing a 3 month probationary period.

Although with a focus on sales we are a small team and the candidate can expect to work across the business including marketing, content writing and administration.

Commission is earned on each holiday sold and is uncapped, there is the potential for the right person to start earning commission immediately.
