Travel Sales Advisor
We believe in providing the best possible experience for our customers and doing this with heart! Our agents support customers via telephone regarding various travel enquiries. The aim is to support the customer to make the most of their Avios, adding value and leaving a great impression. You can play a huge part in our customers story, helping them to make memories that last a lifetime.
Our customers are existing members (usually British Airways Executive Club Members) and so the role of the Travel Sales Advisor is to create memorable experiences.
What you'll be doing
- Booking and promoting a wide range of travel products for our members
- Supporting our customers to make the most of their Avios through questioning and listening, then being able to offer products and experiences that match the customers' needs
- Engaging our members by delivering an outstanding customer experience who will want to continue to collect and redeem with the IAG Loyalty brand
- Using the inhouse and bespoke systems to price and further book products/plans/experiences for the customer
- Offering various packages, allowing the customer to pay for their experience in a way that suits them best whether that be through points or cash.
The person
Every customer and their story are different, and therefore we look for people to join our team who are passionate about people and the world, who can communicate with people from all walks of life and can offer best in class customer experience.
You will be able to articulate what it means to offer great customer service; you will be able to ask the right questions and listen to what the customer wants/needs to offer bespoke solutions to truly create those ‘wow' moments. We would love you have a passion for travel, but it is not essential that you have travelled the world (we can help you with that).
You will be good with numbers and able to guide the customer to make the most of their Avios currency and so can influence customer decisions through effective and bespoke offerings.
Working from home and working with bespoke and at times complex systems means you will be comfortable with systems and be digitally savvy.
What do you get in return?
- A flexible approach to your shifts (The system will ask for shift preference a month in advance and the system will allocate you shifts; some weekend and evening work is necessary)
- Monthly commission (dependant on monthly KPIs and personal performance)
- Career progression opportunities
- Minimum of 25 days' annual leave
- 1 x annual flight concessions for you + 1 other (British Airways)
- Unlimited standby flight tickets with British Airways after 6 months
- Familiarisation trips to worldwide destinations with your colleagues
- Global travel industry discounts including flights, hotels, cinema tickets, and attractions
- Free worldwide travel insurance
- IAG Loyalty rewards when you join and every year on your birthday
- High value colleague recognition scheme
- Private health care
- Two days paid volunteering leave per year
- Company contributed pension.
