About the role
We are seeking an outstanding Executive / VIP Business Travel Consultant to deliver an elite, seven-star service experience to senior leaders, executives, and high-value corporate clients. This role is designed for someone who understands that Executive Travel is not transactional but highly personalized, time‑critical, and relationship‑driven.
The ideal candidate brings a strong background in hospitality, premium travel, or luxury customer service, paired with a solid understanding of contact centre operations where productivity, efficiency, and CSAT must coexist. You will be comfortable operating at pace, managing complex itineraries, and making confident decisions on behalf of discerning clients. You will have strong GDS experience; full cross‑platform training can be provided for candidates with experience in Amadeus, Sabre, or another GDS.
