What are the responsibilities and job description for the Vacation Consultant position at Expedia Cruises in Camillus?
Are you passionate about travel and eager to turn that passion into a rewarding career? Have you ever wanted to become your own boss and set your own work schedule? If so, we have an exciting opportunity for you to become an Independent Vacation Consultant on a 1099 commission-based basis. No prior travel sales experience is required. If you love travel and helping others, we will provide the training and support needed for this position.
As an Independent Vacation Consultant, your primary responsibility will be to provide exceptional customer service to existing and potential customers by helping them plan and prepare for their dream vacations. You will work closely with clients to understand their preferences, budget, and travel requirements, providing expert advice and personalized recommendations. Your duties will include:
- Researching and recommending travel destinations, accommodations, transportation options, travel insurance and activities that best meet the customer's needs.
- Managing reservations, confirming bookings, and handling any necessary changes or cancellations.
- Providing exceptional customer service throughout the entire travel process, addressing any inquiries or concerns promptly and assisting them if any issues occur during their travel.
- Staying up-to-date with travel trends, industry news, and destination information to better serve clients.
Currently, we are looking for candidates who are willing to spend at least 8-12 hours in the travel office supporting inbound calls, website leads and walk-in customers. Additional time can be spent working at home or in the office based on the flexibility that you need (other jobs, kids in school, etc). The schedule is highly flexible.
Please note that because this is a 100% commission-based position and commission isn’t paid out until the customer travels, it will take some time to generate revenue. This position is not a good fit for someone who needs steady income immediately.
To apply, please submit your resume and a brief statement outlining your interest in the position.
