Martin Randall Travel — the UK's leading specialist in expert-led cultural tours — is looking for a bright, energetic graduate to join our Client Relationship Team.
This is a graduate-level role that blends genuine client care with confident, consultative selling: from a client's first enquiry through to a confirmed booking, you'll build relationships and actively champion our programme of tours, festivals and events.
It's a busy, varied position at the heart of the business and an outstanding grounding in how a specialist travel company works — ideal for a sharp, hardworking graduate who wants real responsibility early and the drive to turn interest into bookings.
The role
- Front-line response to inbound enquiries, offering clear, knowledgeable advice across our full programme.
- Proactive outbound contact — by phone and email — to clients and prospective clients, championing our tours, festivals and events and converting interest into bookings.
- End-to-end ownership of client requests, from receipt through to fulfilment, coordinating closely with suppliers for accuracy and timely delivery.
- Following up leads and turning enquiries into bookings through confident, well-informed conversation.
- Checking availability, confirming bookings, and recommending suitable upgrades and alternatives.
- Building strong supplier relationships to maintain a consistently high standard of service for our clients, when supporting them on their special requests.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
