Travel Industry Internship

Job description

If you have an unhealthy interest in travel and want to experience the pace of life in a lively, fast moving young business dealing with customers and sellers from over all over the world then this is the job for you.

We're Vidados and GoLearnTo. Vidados is an activity holidays marketplace where ordinary holidays don't get a look in.

We sell over 800 quirky and surprising activity and adventure holidays worldwide where you can go learn to cook, surf, go hiking, horse riding, cycling, take photographs to be proud of, paint, practice yoga, Pilates, detox and even sing!

GoLearnTo is an exciting activity holiday travel company with holidays that are less ordinary.

If you want to change the travel world, you’ve come to the right place. We’re doing it every day. We’re creating something new in the travel industry. Join us, help sell our holidays and find out why.

You will never be bored. We sell amazing holidays and that requires amazing interns. Interns who are determined, curious, thoughtful to a fault and yet extremely practical.

You’ll get involved primarily in assisting the sales and reservations team in improving customer’s booking experience, speaking to sellers worldwide and assisting them with help using the website, looking at how the holidays are displayed on the website and improving them, gathering customer feedback and potentially even helping out writing for the website – its not just about answering a phone and don’t worry, there’s no boring photocopying and no dull reception work.

You'll also have the chance to be in touch with our sellers from all around the world, helping them make their holiday listings the most attractive they can to sell as much as they can.

We have placements available from December 2015 onwards for a minimum of 8 weeks.

So, if you are looking for something magnificent to put on your CV, get in touch.

READ THIS BIT CAREFULLY, WE WILL SAY IT ONLY ONCE…
