Specialist Travel Sales Specialist — Worldwide & Africa
Home Based UK | Permanent | £Competitive + Uncapped Commission
We are recruiting for a Travel Sales Specialist to cover Africa for an independent luxury tour operator with extensive expertise in expedition and wildlife travel. These are permanent, home-based roles for experienced consultants with deep regional knowledge of Africa.
This is a consultative, high-value sales role with products that span worldwide destinations and, for Africa, gorilla trekking in Rwanda, safari camps in Botswana and Tanzania. Bespoke, specialist, life-changing travel.
You will manage the full luxury travel sales cycle, from initial enquiry through to confirmed booking, creating detailed, personalised proposals and itineraries for discerning clients. Once a booking converts, a dedicated admin and accounts team take over all administration and financial processing, leaving you free to focus entirely on sales and client relationships.
Reasons to use Rodeo

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.
