For over 30 years, EF Go Ahead Tours has guided adult travelers across the globe via carefully crafted group travel itineraries. Our travelers range from young professionals to retirees, solo travelers to entire families, travel enthusiasts to those stepping off their first flight. We believe the best way to learn about the world is to experience it and every day we come to work hoping to help as many people as possible do just that.

The Role:

In this role, you will be responsible for owning and growing a book of business made up of Group Coordinators. We are looking for ambitious, high performing, self-motivated individuals with an entrepreneurial spirit. To achieve success, you will be responsible for qualifying, following up with, and converting sales leads to customers via outbound phone sales.

You will be part of our Sales Development Program where you will receive one-on-one personal attention designed to promote professional growth and understanding of the business. Your goal will be to develop your own book of business, follow up on warm leads and maintain a healthy pipeline. You will help our customers see the world and take pride in being part of an organization that is shaping the global perspective of travelers.

A Successful Tour Consultant Will Be:

• Strong verbal communication skills (must be able to connect with a diverse range of individuals via telephone)
• Influential and can intrinsically motivate others (persuade vs. tell)
• A good listener with strong communication and collaboration skills
• Self-starter who desires to take responsibility for their professional and pipeline growth
• Confident and decisive when faced with a challenge
• Able to take feedback and implement it quickly
• A problem-solver who has the ability to utilize curiosity and apply what they’ve discovered to create an effective solution
