The opportunity


**In-office only**


If you’re an experienced Business Travel Consultant who can work accurately at a fast pace, and takes real pride in your work, we want to speak to you!


We’re looking for someone who operates at a high level - someone who can manage complex travel requirements, build strong client relationships, and deliver consistently without close supervision.


At Your Travel Corporate, the focus is simple. High standards, strong clients, and a service-led approach. No shortcuts, no volume-driven chaos.


If you’re currently in a role where you’re undervalued, restricted, or just not earning or working at the level you know you can, this could be the step up.


What you’ll be doing



  • Managing fast paced end-to-end corporate travel bookings across air, hotel, rail and ancillary services

  • Acting as the main point of contact for your clients, delivering a high-touch, concierge-level service

  • Handling complex itineraries, changes, reissues and urgent requests with confidence

  • Monitoring GDS queues and proactively managing deadlines and ticketing requirements

  • Building long-term client relationships focused on retention and service excellence

  • Supporting clients outside of standard hours when required

  • Working closely with the wider team to maintain consistently high standards


What we’re looking for



  • Minimum 5 years’ experience in a business travel role (essential)

  • Strong GDS knowledge (Travelport preferred, but Amadeus, Galileo or Sabre considered)

  • Able to process GDS Exchanges and Refunds

  • Experience using the Atriis travel platform is preferred

  • Confident managing complex, high-value travel requests independently

  • Excellent attention to detail and organisational skills

  • Strong communication skills with a natural client-first mindset

  • Calm under pressure and comfortable working in a fast-paced environment

  • A team player who takes ownership and pride in their work


Preferred (not essential):



  • Ticketing or fare-related qualifications


What you’ll get in return



  • Flexibility around school drop offs and pick ups if needed

  • A genuinely supportive, experienced team

  • Opportunity to work with a growing, ambitious business

  • Vitality life insurance (post-probation)

  • 31 days annual leave inclusive of public/bank holidays, increasing with service

  • Employee Assistance Programme and wellbeing support

  • Regular team events and a strong company culture


Full-time, Permanent


Benefits:



  • Employee discount

  • Health & wellbeing programme

  • Life insurance


Work Location: In person
