  • Issue Resolution & Crisis Management: Proactively monitor flight statuses, hotel bookings, and itinerary milestones. Address disruptions such as delays, cancellations, or itinerary changes with calm professionalism, coordinating alternative arrangements to minimize client inconvenience.
  • Administrative & CRM Duties: Maintain meticulous records of client interactions, preferences, and transaction histories within the arenaflex CRM. Process payments securely, generate invoices, and reconcile financial data on a daily basis.
  • Team Collaboration: Partner with senior travel consultants, marketing specialists, and operations staff to share insights, flag emerging client needs, and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives.

  • Exceptional verbal and written communication skills in English; additional language fluency (Spanish, French, Mandarin, etc.) is a strong advantage.
  • High school diploma or equivalent required; a bachelor’s degree in Hospitality Management, Tourism, Business Administration, or a related field is preferred.
  • Strong organizational abilities with a proven track record of managing multiple client accounts and deadlines simultaneously.
  • Tech‑savvy: comfortable navigating cloud‑based office suites (Google Workspace, Microsoft 365), video‑conferencing tools, and basic troubleshooting of internet‑related issues.
  • Resilient problem‑solver who can remain composed under pressure, think creatively, and deliver swift, effective solutions.
