What you bring
- A Bachelor's degree or HND in Travel & Tourism, Business Administration, or related field

Why this role
- Work with a genuinely varied client base — corporate, diplomatic, and individual travelers — never the same day twice
- Sharpen and grow your GDS expertise in a role that treats it as a craft, not just a checklist
- Be trusted with real ownership: your calls on fares, rebookings, and client service directly shape the client's experience and the agency's reputation
- The preferred candidate MUST RESIDE IN ABUJA.
