Travel planner and researcher - Contract to Hire
I'm a 40-year old Filipino-American entrepreneur seeking an assistant for travel planning & online research for myself & my family. You will help with creating unique trip ideas, building detailed itineraries, and comparing quotes. You will be working with me and a team of other assistants.
You should be dedicated, proactive, and resourceful, with excellent communication skills to contact others on my behalf. Creativity is key to succeeding in this role, as you will often be tasked with creating plans and solving problems that require thinking outside the box. You will be contacting vendors, reading / posting on forums, and exploring travel ideas that are not readily available. The more creative - the better! You will be tasked with organizing information in a clear way so I can make informed decisions quickly and easily. You must also be responsive, available for travel emergencies, and comfortable working longer hours or outside traditional schedules.
I am based in Asia so you will be working normal Philippines daytime hours - NOT USA hours.
Qualifications:
A college degree and reliable internet connection.
Proven international travel experience (domestic-only travel is not sufficient).
Passion for travel, with experience in long-term backpacking a plus.
Strong English communication skills, both written and verbal - you will be making calls and responding to emails.
A flexible schedule, and the ability to work beyond standard hours when required.
Please include the following in your reply:
Your resume or CV, highlighting your educational background and work experience.
A brief introduction about your travel experiences and what makes you interested in this role.
Your personal Instagram or blog, if available, as well as any work or interests related to travel.
Any travel blogs, forums, or communities you enjoy or participate in.
If your background is suitable, I will give you a sample research task to complete as a trial.
Compensation:
The starting salary is USD $1,000/month with a minimum two months bonus for the first calendar year. Exceptional performance will result in significantly higher bonuses and opportunities for growth in both salary and responsibilities.
