Senior Amadeus Reservations & Ticketing Specialist - Out of Hours

Homebased, Amadeus Essential, Only 4 Weekends Per Year

Are you an Amadeus expert who genuinely enjoys the technical side of travel?

We're looking for an experienced Reservations & Ticketing Specialist to join a busy Out of Hours team, supporting clients with urgent travel requirements outside normal office hours.

This role would suit someone who has worked in a dedicated ticketing department or an experienced reservations consultant from a tour operator environment, who is confident managing the entire booking lifecycle - from creating reservations through to ticketing, reissues, refunds and urgent travel changes.

With an exceptionally low volume of work overnight, this is a rare opportunity to utilise your expertise while enjoying an outstanding work-life balance.

The Role

  • Managing a low volume of out-of-hours travel requests.
  • Creating and amending UK, European and worldwide travel reservations.
  • Issuing tickets, processing exchanges, reissues and refunds within Amadeus.
  • Handling schedule changes, travel disruptions and urgent requests.
  • Working confidently with fares, fare rules and ticketing processes.
  • Ensuring bookings are completed accurately and efficiently.
  • A genuine on-call position where, once any work has been completed, the remainder of the shift is typically quiet (sleeping is permitted).

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
