The position requires someone who is detail-oriented, well-spoken, well-written, well-organized and performs best under pressure. Extra preference will be given for those with SABRE experience. Preference will also be given if you have experience working with a luxury market/clientele.

Work is weekdays (never weekends) and between the hours of 10 AM and 6 PM Eastern during which you make yourself available to the agency founder/manager and his team. You will not be asked to work outside. We are based in New York City however you can work remotely for this position from anywhere, provided you are US based.

The Fine Print:

You must be incredibly detail-oriented and well written; in our industry, an error in dates or a name misspelled will cause huge problems. You also must excel in client management in order to be able to deal with our high-level clientele. Our team is young, dynamic, hard-working, and fun; all are remote and communicate mainly via Slack. Despite being remote, team cohesion is important. You must also be a hard-worker, committed to the long-term goal, and incredibly well versed at multi-tasking and prioritization.

The role will begin as a full time hourly role. Following your 90 day review, you will transition to a full time salaried position inclusive of health benefits. Travel benefits are a given but should not be the reason you apply to this role.

You must be able to take direction but also be self-sufficient when assigned tasks. Your daily tasks include some clerical duties, social media posts (Instagram), scheduling/calendar management, CRM/accounting entry/invoicing, itinerary creation, and hotel research/quote creation, responding to and following up with house clients via emails. Experience with similar roles is required.

If your resume is considered, you may be given a written evaluation prior to proceeding with the interview process as again writing is paramount in this role. You will also be taught Sabre GDS as part of your training.
