We Live and Love Travel.... Do you?
We have a new store opening inside the Trafford Centre John Lewis - therefore we are looking for experienced Travel Consultants to join us for this exciting opportunity. Full and Part time opportunities available.
There’s a very simple reason why Kuoni consistently tops the awards. It’s thanks to our outstanding Travel Experts who go the extra mile to craft the perfect holiday that’s unique to the customer - it’s what we are famous for!
Kuoni holidays don’t come off the shelf; they are tailor made and crafted to suit the individual needs of the customer – while offering exceptional customer service. This can be delivered face to face, over the phone, via email or online chat.
We believe the best advice comes from personal experience, from someone who knows the destination inside out. They have felt it, tasted it, swam in it and basked in its glory…. Do you agree?
As a Personal Travel Expert you will be delivering a personal service on a daily basis and your aim will be to inspire and create excitement for the customer by designing a holiday to match their interests, tastes and spend and of course, created with absolute commitment to quality. Alongside exceptional customer service, you will work towards monthly sales targets and create relationships with trade partners.
Our stores are open seven days a week with a requirement to work 37 hours across 5 days which will include a selection of shifts including evenings and weekends (Full Time). For the part time opportunity there will be a requirement to work 3 or 4 days a week.
Opening Hours:

o Be self-motivated and dedicated to follow up on enquiries
o Committed to delivering outstanding customer service
