- Take ownership to develop and drive business improvement opportunities that are valued by our clients and create a competitive difference.
- Build relationships at multiple levels within our with our client’s business, and with our suppliers that partner with us to deliver outstanding value to our clients.
- Manage client communications regarding flight disruption and recovery.
- Be part of a team that develops and negotiates innovative charter bid solutions that deliver outstanding value to our clients.
- Communicate at multiple levels internally and within our client organisations.
- Analyse data and create engaging presentations that can be pitched to multiple organisational levels.

**Who we’re looking for**:

- Experience working in aviation, or a mass transportation company (desirable)
- Experience analysing sales data and identifying opportunities
- Demonstrated ability to engage clients across a range of levels and build sustainable relationships
- Strategic Account Management experience with large-value clients
- Contract management and interpretation experience
- A person who has a passion for travel, aviation, and delivering outstanding service
- Team player who is willing to involve themselves in the operational side of the role

**What you’ll get from us**:
We’re committed to looking after you, with some of the best benefits and conditions in the industry - including (but not limited to):

- Heavily discounted air travel for you and your loved ones (including $1000 worth of travel credits per year)
- Flexible working arrangements (including work hours and work from home)
- Discounts on travel insurance, car hire, accommodation and experiences worldwide
