- Exceptional written English: you write with clarity, warmth, and professionalism
- A self-starter: you love learning, exploring, and improving processes without being asked
- Tech-savvy: comfortable using Slack, WhatsApp, Google Sheets and Docs, and booking platforms
- Fast but thoughtful: you balance responsiveness with high-quality work
- Curious and well-informed: you research effectively, verify information, and stay ahead of travel trends
- Background in hospitality, travel, or concierge services
- Experience with AI tools such as ChatGPT or travel research assistants
- Familiarity with airlines, loyalty programs, and travel booking systems
- International travel experience or strong knowledge of major global destinations
- Negotiation skills to advocate for clients with vendors and hotels
