How You'll Deploy Your Travel Expertise

This isn't a traditional sales or BDM role-you won't be selling travel directly. Instead, you'll use your broad travel industry experience and deep coaching skills to mentor, guide, and grow a portfolio of 60-80 independent Travel Consultants (TCs).

You'll act as a trusted advisor-helping them develop not just as agents, but as confident small business owners with the mindset, skills, and strategy to succeed long-term.

The Value You'll Bring

• Coach and mentor Travel Consultants (TC) on running their own travel businesses, from operations to growth strategy
• Deliver tailored 1:1 coaching and group sessions based on each consultant's goals and stage of business
• Support TCs with sales performance, lead generation, marketing and customer retention
• Help them translate industry knowledge into commercial success and a loyal customer base
• Be their go-to for business advice, motivation, and problem-solving
• Build a strong sense of community, loyalty, and support among your TC group
• Track performance metrics, identify gaps, and deliver actionable, empathetic feedback
• Deliver virtual workshops and contribute to shaping our coaching and development programmes
• Occasionally travel to Bournemouth HQ or take part in overseas training retreats
  
  

This is a fully remote role, based from home, with occasional visits to our Bournemouth HQ and the opportunity to join one of our overseas training retreats.

You will have the flexibility to manage your own diary, whilst ensuring attendance at daily morning meetings, one-to-ones, and regular team catch-ups.

As our Travel Consultants may need support outside standard office hours, you should be comfortable delivering webinars or coaching sessions during evenings or weekends as part of your working week.

About You

We're looking for someone who's walked the walk-someone with both extensive travel industry experience and a strong track record in coaching or mentoring business owners.

You'll Need

• A solid background in the travel sector, ideally across multiple roles (e.g. sales, operations, agency management, or franchise support)
• Proven track record of coaching or mentoring individuals to success
• Proven ability to coach, mentor or train small business owners or franchisees
• A commercial mindset with an understanding of how to scale a business
• Confidence using data, CRM systems, and digital tools to drive performance
• Strong working knowledge of social media and marketing strategies for lead generation
• Excellent communication skills, both one-on-one and in group settings
• A proactive, people-first approach to leadership
  
  

Bonus If You Have

• ILM Level 5 or similar coaching qualification
• Experience running your own travel business or franchise
• Background in digital marketing or brand building
