Franchise Development, Franchise Growth, Partnerships, Business Development, New Business, Lead Generation, Audience Development, Commercial Growth, Relationship Building Who We Are The Travel Franchise gives people the opportunity to build their own travel businesses, with the training, technology, community and support to help them succeed. We've built one of the world's leading travel franchise businesses and have been recognised as Best Lifestyle Franchise in the World two years running.

As we continue to grow, we want to go beyond the opportunities already coming to us and uncover new audiences, relationships and routes to future franchisees. That's where you come in.

• Experience developing relationships or partnerships that have generated measurable commercial opportunities.
• Evidence of working across multiple routes or channels to market, rather than specialising predominantly in one acquisition channel.
• Strong business development and relationship-building skills. What This Role Isn't This isn't a traditional performance marketing or single-channel lead-generation role. If your experience has predominantly involved managing one or two acquisition channels such as Linked In outreach, email campaigns or paid media, this is unlikely to be the right opportunity. Equally, this isn't purely a franchise sales role. You'll work closely with an experienced sales team who take qualified opportunities through the franchise sales…
