Obviously you have to love travel – you’ll be doing quite a lot of it.

You also have to really like people. All sorts of people; the ones who wear red robes and carry spears in Kenya. The ones who travel in yak carts and live in yurts in Mongolia. The ones who walk into our Fulham headquarters and start telling you their dreams.

You have to be a good listener, an enthusiastic communicator and an indefatigable organiser.

You’ll also have to be willing to learn. No matter how advanced your professional skills, or how many years of experience you have, there is always something to learn in this business. And we offer training at every level, to help you travel to the next.
