JOB OVERVIEW

The role, in brief

You turn loose wishes into precise, beautiful itineraries. A consultant hands you a feeling and a fortnight; you return routes, rhythms and the space between them — the afternoon left deliberately empty, the train taken because the view is worth the hour. This is craft work done mostly in drafts, and you will hand over a document a traveller still has on their phone a year later.

YOUR ROLE

How You’ll Make an Impact

Craft once-in-a-lifetime journeys for clients who expect the extraordinary — and deliver them with calm, taste, and precision.

Itinerary Design

Translate a consultant's brief into a fully sequenced itinerary, balancing pacing, logistics, and moments of stillness so each day feels considered rather than crammed.

Route & Logistics Planning

Map transport, transfers, and timing across multi-destination trips, choosing the slower or costlier option when the experience justifies it.

Collaboration with Consultants

Work closely with Travel Consultants and Destination Specialists to translate client preferences and regional knowledge into itineraries that reflect each traveller's taste.

Drafting & Refinement

Iterate on itineraries through multiple drafts, incorporating feedback until the final document is polished enough for a traveller to keep and return to.
