Descripción del empleo

We are looking for a customer-centric team member based in Europe to join our team as a part-time contractor. You'll be an essential part of our operations team, helping us book tours for our customers and cover emergency phone lines on weekends. You will be the first point of contact for our customers during their trips, assisting with urgent enquiries and managing disruptions. You will assist the Destination Managers in our South-West European Destinations (France, Belgium, Spain, and Portugal) and also work closely with suppliers.

You should be comfortable managing multiple tasks, staying calm under pressure, and ensuring every customer interaction is handled with care and attention to detail. If you have a knack for turning challenges into solutions, we'd love to hear from you!

The Company

Pissup Tours (as part of the Awesome Adventures Group) is the industry's best-reviewed Bachelor & Bachelorette Party company and we have been organizing unforgettable party weekends all over Europe since 2001. We send more than 50,000 customers a year to more than 30 different destinations. We offer the opportunity to work professionally with some of the most fun products in the world : organizing incredible party weekends for happy customers.

Key Responsibilities

• Handle incoming phone calls and emails from travelling customers, providing ad-hoc solutions on the spot.
• Switch between languages as calls come from a wide range of nationalities and adapt quickly.
• Answer time-sensitive calls on our emergency phones to support our customers with disruption, and be an ambassador for Pissup at a potentially stressful time.
• Contact suppliers when necessary to solve issues. You will need to learn the contact information for a high number of suppliers and be familiar with our internal booking platform.
• Assist the Destination Managers in the French-speaking & Iberica destinations with preparing final itineraries and an end-of-week meeting to hand over the important information for the weekend arrivals.

What We're Looking For

• Previous experience in travel planning / event management or customer service.
• If you have previous experience in providing a duty phone or emergency phone service to customers and clients, that is a big plus, but not required.
• Comfortable problem-solving and communicating confidently in time-pressured and challenging situations.
• An excellent phone manner.
• Fluent in English & French and a good level of Spanish. The majority of groups are French-speaking clients, and therefore a good level of French is essential. You will also need to speak with Spanish-speaking suppliers, therefore an adequate level of Spanish is also required.
• Someone available 2 weekends a month (including Friday evening) to be on call and available for phone calls from groups. Also available one afternoon per week, preferably on Friday afternoon.
• A good phone & internet access.
• Someone with a freelance working situation that is able to work European hours.

What We Offer

• A flexible opportunity to earn extra income.
• Remote working / Home office.
• Entry level into travel & tourism or for someone looking to get back into the tourism industry.
• This is a part-time position that is mainly on the weekends, with a small number of hours on a Friday to prepare for the weekend arrivals and the final travel itineraries.
• You will receive training regarding the activities we offer, the suppliers, including how to contact them in an emergency and also how to deal with emergencies.
• The position is currently planned as a temporary position from March to the end of August, but we will see how things develop.
