Travel Counsellors embarks on ‘biggest’ recruitment drive

Travel Counsellors has started it “biggest” recruitment drive to attract 300 new positions.

The new job opportunities are being created following a record performance in 2023 and reflects the travel industry’s resilience and robust growth, according to the company.

The homeworking firm has already reached 2,000 independent travel business owners from a range of different backgrounds.

The business is aiming to attract individuals with a passion for travel who are interested in setting up their own business, from those at the start of their careers, to returners to the industry and others who may be working outside the travel industry and looking for a career switch.

The company is to invest £15 million in its proprietary technology platform as it seeks to build on last year’s sales momentum.

A record £350 million of departures are already booked for 2024,  up 30% year-on-year.

Director of franchise sales Matt Harding said: “This is our biggest single recruitment push ever, and we are keen to attract new talent to help take the business to the next level.

“By embracing diversity, providing comprehensive training and fostering mentorship, Travel Counsellors ensures that every business owner, regardless of their professional background, has the resources and support to thrive in the travel industry.

“We set ourselves apart through a unique recruitment approach centred on relationship building, nurturing and transparency to ensure the right fit for each individual that is looking to join us.”
