Job Description:
We’re looking for an articulate and motivated individual to join our team as a Sales Representative for student travel programs. This is not your typical sales role — experience in sales isn’t required, but a genuine curiosity, strong communication skills, and emotional intelligence are essential. In this fast-paced and dynamic environment, you’ll connect with schools, teachers,
and organizations to share travel experiences that can transform students’ lives.
The role calls for someone adaptable and open-minded, able to stay composed under pressure and find creative solutions when plans change. You’ll collaborate closely with a team that values communication, trust, and shared success over competition, contributing to an environment where everyone grows together. If you’re someone who learns quickly, enjoys engaging conversations, and thrives in situations that challenge you to think critically and empathically, this role offers the chance to build meaningful connections while helping others experience opportunities of a lifetime.
Responsibilities:
• Make outbound calls to prospective parents, students, or leads using provided scripts and contact lists.
• Handle inbound calls from prospective parents and students and discuss the value of the program.
• Clearly communicate the value of our programs and answer basic question
