Brand Rep & Events Coordinator

Dear Future Welcome to Travel Brand Rep & Event Coordinator,

This is one epic job. No seriously, this is going to be so cool.

Are you someone who is all about vibe?

Are you your friend’s hype person?

But you are stuck in boring arse job!

Imagine actually getting excited about going to work, what a feeling!

If your face is lighting up as you’re reading, this might be the most important job ad you ever read.

Here’s why…

Experience can be great, but it’s not the be all and end all and we don’t only look for people with experience in the travel industry. 

When looking at who is best to join our team, we look for individuals that are switched on, sharp and passionate about travel, people and delivering experiences. 

We back ourselves to be able to teach you the industry knowledge part.

We look for people that are assertive, ambitious, are excited about getting themselves, and our travellers out of their comfort zone.

Wait a minute, what is a Welcome to Travel Brand Rep & Event Coordinator anyway?

This is someone who: 

• Cares about international travellers’ experience of Australia
• Loves meeting people and having a lasting impact on people’s lives
• Wants travellers to return home and shout from the rooftops that everyone needs to go travelling with Welcome to Travel
• Truly believes that travel enables people to see the world differently.
• Is excited to sell the best thing ever, travel!

The positive effect our tours and community have on people is astounding. Check our reviews on Google if you don’t believe us…

As an Brand Rep & Event Coordinator you will be meeting so many different people in different situations.

One day you could be hosting the first day of our East Coast tour, the next you may be hosting an event for our Community and later in the week you could be helping people book their travels around the country. 

Each work day will be different, but interacting with travellers will be a daily theme.

We’re with each one of our travellers every step of the way and we want them to have the best experience possible while they’re in Australia. This will play a huge part in that.

Ok, a little bit about us…

• We’ve welcomed travellers from 39 different countries
• We have offices in Melbourne and Sydney
• We’re crazy ambitious
• We’re focused on being the best we can be

We know that the hardest part about travelling is always the start, so we want to make sure each traveller has the best possible experience with us.

Let Us Tell You About The Role

Although your working week and expectations will be clear, the role will be kept exciting and fresh as no two days are the same. It will feature:

• Guiding Day 1 on our East Coast Tour, meaning you’re the first person our travellers will meet on tour
• Inspiring travellers through hosting travel talks
• Contributing to the creation of Welcome to Travel events
• Hosting Welcome to Travel events

Please take the time to write a cover letter that tells us about YOU.

We don’t want the boring stuff, we want the details.

We want you to jump off the page as if you’re actually in the room, telling us about who YOU are and specifically why you think you would be a perfect fit for this role.
