asap start.
Travel obsessed? Big tech fan? Hey, you’re in good company. If you want to be part of the industry that makes the world go round, then look no further.
Travelport is the brains behind lots of your travel bookings- plane, car or hotel. Our technology is used to book that magical holiday, infamous bachelorette party or long overdue school reunion. While we can’t solve mosquito bites or lost luggage, we can simplify a lot of the technical parts of travel, and we’re looking for the best thinkers to help us do it.
This is a newly created hybrid Senior TA Partner role, with approximately 80% focused on experienced hire recruitment and 20% on emerging talent.
It isn’t just about filling roles—it’s about elevating TA to a strategic function with a true seat at the top table. We’re embracing innovation and AI to disrupt traditional approaches, drive efficiency, and enhance every stage of the TA lifecycle. We’re open about the fact that some of our systems, processes, and ways of working need fixing- we see this as an opportunity and not a blocker.
If you’re passionate about shaping the future of talent, influencing at the highest level, and leveraging technology and data to deliver exceptional outcomes, read on!

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.
Only hits
