Job description

 

Start your career journey with Thomas Cook as an Apprentice Sales Consultant!

 

Rated outstanding in all areas by Ofsted, this opportunity is sure to kick start an exciting career.

 

You’re interested in travel but don’t just want to study travel, you want to live and breathe it, using your passion and enthusiasm to sell for Thomas Cook and ensure our customers have a great experience.

 

If you’re looking for a rewarding career as part of an ambitious team, want to continue your personal development, earn a salary and be rewarded for your achievements through commission and incentives, then look no further!

 

What we offer:

 

As an Apprentice Sales Consultant, you’ll earn a salary whilst you learn.  You’ll also have the opportunity to earn commission through achieving your sales targets.  Not only will you achieve a nationally recognised qualification (Travel Services at Level 2 and 3 (in Scotland) or Travel Consultant Apprenticeship Standard at Level 3), you’ll also gain real life work experience, which will form the foundation of your career.

 

You’ll need to be prepared to work hard in a fast paced environment, learn on the job and adapt quickly to change. You’ll receive sales and customer service training and will learn all about foreign exchange, but you must have the desire and determination to succeed in a sales environment, promoting additional products and services.  You’ll also need to use in-store technology to demonstrate your digital skills, delighting our customers and bringing their holiday enquiry to life.
