Sales Consultant

Job Description Do you have experience within the Travel / Corporate Travel Industry?
Are you based out in Kent and looking for an exciting local opportunity?
We are assisting an up-and-coming travel agent specialising in corporate and high-end luxury travel who are looking for a hungry and dynamic salesperson / account manager that is looking to take the next step in their career.
Role and responsibilities: Your role will initially consist of learning how to manage the itineraries of the travellers of busy PA's, EA's and travel bookers over the initial 3-6 weeks of your employment - you will be shown you what they do, how they do it and help you learn the skills you need.
You will gain your clients from the company, but you will also be responsible for using your time to source leads to gain new clientele for which you will also be given support and guidance.
This role will occasionally be demanding and require you to work outside of normal office hours (to book a last-minute flight for a client, for example) so experience with this type of role will be an advantage.
You will be responsible for ensuring all travel plans are seamlessly and accurately booked.
What will you achieve in your next 12 months with this company?
