– Maintaining regular communication with the Sales Manager throughout the full cycle of a trip.
– Leading direct communication with agent or client at 90 to 45 days prior to travel, when the confirmed trip transitions from Sales to Operations.
– Managing complete and accurate electronic client folders on the server.
– Maintaining effective relationships with suppliers that will prepare them for service delivery.
– Polished and professional complaint resolution.
• Developing and maintaining strong relationships with clients, offering excellent customer service:
– Finessing unique, safe, and luxurious experiences that build lasting memories.
– Reviewing trip details to ensure that the trip fulfills if not surpasses the client’s expectations.
– Delivering special “touches” or wow factors during client’s trips.
– Ensuring that every interaction is utilized as an opportunity to impress and be of service.
– Work with the team to set up welcome amenities for all travellers.
– Maintaining up to date Trip Calendar entries, tracking Live Travel interactions with client (can include changes, cancelations, and any positive or negative impressions of travel).

• Providing the Documentation Department with complete and accurate trip information and reviewing itineraries for accuracy.
• Sharing product knowledge, supplier feedback with Operations team or Sales and Product as needed.

• Closing files and accounting for all services and any changes that may have occurred.
