Business Consultant - Business Development Manager

Title: Business Consultant / Business Development Manager

Location: Remote

Department: BDM

This Is Not Your Typical BDM Role

If you enjoy helping people build something of their own, this role offers a genuine opportunity to make a difference.

You will work with a portfolio of Travel Consultants who are running their own franchise businesses. Some are just getting started, others are ready to grow. Your role is to help them move forward with clarity, confidence, and practical support that actually works.

 

You’ll be working with the number one travel company in the UK, and the worlds number one travel franchise. Yes, we are voted the best in the world, which is why we are looking for the very best to join our team.

 

This is about more than targets. It is about building capability, strengthening businesses, and being the person they rely on when they need direction or a fresh perspective.

 

What The Role Looks Like

You will support around 60 to 80 Travel Consultants, working closely with them to improve how they sell, market themselves, and run their businesses day to day.

 

Some days will be focused on one to one coaching. Others will involve running group sessions, reviewing performance data, or helping someone work through a specific challenge. You will also spot patterns across your network and use those insights to improve how we support everyone.

 

You will be trusted to manage your portfolio, build strong relationships, and focus on what will make the biggest difference.

 

What You Will Be Doing

• 
  Coaching Travel Consultants to grow their sales and build sustainable businesses
• 
  Supporting them to improve conversion rates, increase booking values, and generate repeat business
• 
  Helping them develop confidence as business owners
• 
  Reviewing performance data and turning it into clear, practical actions
• 
  Running virtual sessions to share ideas, best practice, and learning
• 
  Working with marketing colleagues to strengthen lead generation and visibility
• 
  Being a consistent, reliable point of support when challenges come up

 

Why This Role Matters

Our Travel Consultants are at the centre of everything we do. When they succeed, our business grows.

This role plays a direct part in that success. You will help people turn part time ventures into full time careers, improve customer experiences, and contribute to the continued growth of one of the most successful travel franchises in the UK.

 

What We Are Looking For

You will already understand the travel industry and what it takes to succeed in it. You might have managed a branch, led a team, or supported others in a sales or coaching capacity.

 

Just as important is how you work.

You are someone who builds trust quickly, listens properly, and gives clear, honest advice. You are comfortable using data, but you know it is the conversation behind it that drives change.

You enjoy seeing others succeed and you are prepared to challenge them when needed to help them get there.

 

You Will Likely Bring

• Proven experience in travel, with a strong understanding of sales and customer expectations


• 
  A background in coaching, mentoring, or business development


• 
  Confidence working remotely and managing your own workload


• 
  Strong communication skills and the ability to adapt your approach to different people


• 
  An interest in how social media and marketing support business growth

The Working Environment

This is a remote role with flexibility built in. Some Travel Consultants will need support outside of typical hours, so a degree of flexibility is important.

 

You will be part of a wider, supportive team, but trusted to take ownership of your own portfolio and approach.
