SOME PEOPLE CALL YOU A walking TRAVEL guidebook.
This posting is for priority consideration for upcoming Travel Counsellor opportunities. While there is no immediate vacancy, we anticipate openings becoming available in the near future and are establishing a priority list of qualified candidates. Candidates who apply will receive early consideration as roles arise. If you’re passionate about helping others and delivering exceptional customer experiences, we encourage you to apply and be part of our first group considered when opportunities open.
The Opportunity
You’re a travel expert who loves to explore what the world has to offer – people, culture, food, adventure, beaches and sites to name a few! You always seem to know the coolest places to go and the smartest ways to get there. You’re tapped into those “hidden gem” restaurants/shops/curiosities that only the locals know about, and somehow, you always seem to score the best deals. When you aren’t travelling yourself, you’re the one telling your friends, family and anyone who will listen about how to create unique and personal travel experiences.
Guess what? We could use someone just like you!
