• Partner with overseas suppliers to design, contract, and deliver new itineraries and experiences that engage our customers and meet our commercial targets.
• Work seamlessly with Marketing, Sales, and Operations to ensure flawless product launches and maximum impact.
• Own the end-to-end product development lifecycle (from concept to market launch) ensuring every new product hits the mark.
• Continuously review and improve our product performance, using insights and feedback to keep us ahead of the game.
• Champion a culture of innovation within the team, encouraging experimentation, curiosity and willingness to change.
• Build positive relationships across the business, making sure new product initiatives are adopted, supported and celebrated.
• Be responsible for the innovation budget and prioritise resources to deliver the biggest return.
  
  

What you’ll bring:

• Proven experience in small group or FIT travel product development
• A proven track record of launching creative, commercially successful products within the travel or adventure sector.
• A deep understanding of the travel market, including emerging trends, consumer behaviours, and competitive landscapes.
• Firsthand travel experience and a personal passion for immersive, off-the-beaten-track adventures.
• Sharp analytical skills and a data-led approach to decision making.
• Excellent relationship-building and communication skills – able to influence, inspire and collaborate at every level.
• Someone who consistently generates creative ideas, approaches tasks strategically, and takes initiative to complete projects.
• Resilience, adaptability and a love of fast-paced environments.
