Job Description


We recognise the value in having people with a variety of backgrounds, experience and skills in our business. That means the role requirements here should be seen as a guide, not a checklist. If you have more, less or different experiences, but really relevant skills, we’d love to hear from you.

We work flexibly and will help you to find a healthy balance of remote working and time in our fantastic Southampton office, collaborating, taking part in events and getting to know people that makes working with us so rewarding. We welcome the opportunity to discuss reduced hours and job share arrangements.

The Role

As one of our Support Advisors, you will demonstrate a passion for our brand when talking to our guests and travel agent partners, using your product knowledge and exceptional customer service skills to resolve queries both pre and post cruise via outbound calls. Where possible you will always aim to provide a first call resolution to deliver the desired outcome. We will look to you to build a trusting relationship with our guests, proactively identifying itineraries and cruise products that match their needs to make a booking. Delivering guest satisfaction and a memorable experience is what we’re in the business for, and you’ll be at the heart of that.

Our role categories range from CUK15 (entry level) to CUK1 (Brand President) so you can clearly see internal development opportunities. This role is a CUK13 and is offered on a full-time or part-time, permanent basis with at least two days based in our Southampton office or may be considered on a fully remote basis where applicable. Hours can be provided between 22.5 hours per week - 40 hours per week with set rotations.

About You

Fresh ideas and different perspectives are what excite us most and help us to succeed. Alongside bringing these to the role, you’ll also need:

  • Excellent customer service skills, with the desire to go the extra mile for our guests and travel partners
  • Ability to resolve enquiries and complaints, delivering first call resolution to a high-quality standard
  • Ability to identify opportunities to retain guests’ bookings by promoting our product features and benefits
  • Experience within a contact centre/high volume/customer service/ travel industry role
  • Experience of working towards and achieving KPI’s, including telephony, sales and guest satisfaction measures
  • Flexibility to work shift patterns including evenings and weekends

About Us

Holidays are one of life’s greatest pleasures. Having the chance to relax, escape and explore is a magical thing. And there is no better holiday than a cruise.

No one knows cruising like Carnival UK, where talented people from across the globe come together to create unforgettable holiday happiness. As part of the world’s largest holiday travel and leisure company, we take enormous pride in bringing to life two of the most iconic brands from Britain’s rich seafaring heritage, P&O Cruises and Cunard. Collectively they have been delivering unbridled joy, boundless adventure and lifelong memories to millions of people for over 350 years. And in a multi-million pound global holiday market, where cruising has barely scratched the surface, we have the opportunity to do that for many, many more people.

Our diverse yet tight knit teams share high standards, heartfelt values and passion for our purpose. Our Culture Essentials describe the expectations we have for ourselves and of each other, in building a culture that supports safe, sustainable, compliant operations and celebrates diversity, equity and inclusion.

It’s through the successful delivery of these extraordinary travel experiences for our target markets and our distinctive culture, that we hope to become Travel’s Employer of Choice.

To keep everyone on board fit and well, colleagues who visit or work on our ships must be fully vaccinated, including boosters. We’re reviewing this requirement regularly.
