We are seeking an experienced East Africa Luxury Travel Consultant to join our growing team of specialists.

This is a client-facing, itinerary-driven role focused exclusively on B2C luxury travel sales and operations coordination. You will work directly with high-net-worth international clients to design and deliver exceptional East African safari experiences, while coordinating seamlessly with lodges, camps, and in-country partners.

This role is not B2B-focused and does not involve trade sales or wholesale contracting.

Success in this role is defined by the ability to convert high-value enquiries, design exceptional itineraries, and consistently deliver outstanding client experiences from enquiry through to post-travel follow-up.

Key Responsibilities

Design and sell bespoke luxury safari itineraries across East Africa (Kenya, Tanzania, Rwanda, Uganda, and surrounding regions)

Engage directly with high-net-worth clients to understand their preferences, expectations, and travel motivations

Manage the full client journey from initial enquiry through to booking confirmation and travel completion

Coordinate closely with lodges, camps, and local partners to ensure flawless execution of itineraries

Build and maintain strong, trust-based client relationships through exceptional communication and service delivery

Stay up to date with East African destinations, new lodge openings, seasonal travel trends, and regulatory requirements

Achieve and exceed individual sales targets while contributing to overall team performance

Ensure accuracy and professionalism in all itineraries, communications, and CRM updates

Proven experience as a luxury travel consultant, ideally with a strong focus on East Africa

In-depth knowledge of East African destinations, including lodges, camps, safari circuits, and exclusive experiences

Strong track record in direct-to-client luxury travel sales and itinerary design

Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to engage high-net-worth clients

Strong organisational ability and attention to detail in managing complex itineraries

Ability to work independently while remaining aligned to a collaborative team environment

Passion for travel, wildlife, conservation, and delivering world-class client experiences

Advantageous

Proficiency in additional languages such as French, German, or Spanish

Experience using luxury travel systems such as Wetu, Tourplan, or similar CRM/itinerary platforms

Previous experience working with international high-end clientele in a sales-driven environment

Competitive salary with performance-based commission structure

Direct exposure to luxury East African lodges and world-class travel experiences

Flexible working environment

Ongoing training, destination development, and access to industry events

Opportunity to travel and experience the destinations you sell firsthand
