Client Service Member – Travel Consultant, Luxury Travel

Role Overview

• Execute searches across multiple booking strategies: award travel, mileage and loyalty program redemptions, creative routing, and premium fare inventory
• Identify the best available options for each client, combining routes, fare classes, and availability in ways that genuinely serve their goals, not just the most obvious result
• Apply fare rules and availability knowledge to find solutions that are both accurate and creative
• Document complete pricing details, fare rules, and booking requirements in our workflow systems so nothing is lost in handover
• Build polished, well-structured quotes that follow Ascend's standards for tone, clarity, and formatting
• Add clear reasoning to every quote: why this route, what the fare rules mean for the client, the pros and cons of each option, and any availability considerations they need to know about
• Deliver quotes within SLA targets: within 5 minutes for short-haul requests and within 25 minutes for long-haul or complex itineraries
• Present options in a way that makes the client's decision easy and confident, not overwhelming
• Acknowledge every new client message within 30 seconds so they know it is being handled
• Maintain proactive, high-touch communication throughout the search and booking process
• Confirm key preferences before quoting: cabin class, routing preferences, loyalty program memberships, and any flexibility on dates or connections
• Handle follow-up questions, clarifications, and booking confirmations with professionalism and genuine warmth
• Maintain 100% accuracy across all workflow systems and client records: task status, client notes, booking details, and preferences updated in real time
• Ensure seamless handovers to the Ticketing and Trip Fulfillment teams so the client's experience does not have any gaps
• Document all key client interactions and decisions so the team has full context at every stage
• Escalate VIP, high-complexity, or time-sensitive requests to your Team Lead immediately, rather than attempting to handle them alone
• Flag pricing anomalies, policy concerns, or system issues when you spot them
• Participate in quality audits and apply feedback to continuously improve your work

Requirements

• 2+ years in travel operations, luxury hospitality, or high-touch client service where you understand what premium service actually feels like from the client's side
• Hands-on Sabre GDS experience is mandatory for this role. You must already be comfortable using Sabre for flight search and booking. This is not a skill we can train from scratch
• Excellent written communication: your client messages are clear, professional, and feel personal, not like they came from a template
• Strong attention to accuracy: you maintain 98%+ accuracy even when you are moving quickly across multiple requests
• The ability to manage multiple client requests simultaneously while meeting tight response and delivery SLAs
• A collaborative mindset: you hand off work cleanly, communicate proactively with your team, and treat handovers as a responsibility, not an afterthought.

Benefits

• Compensation is reviewed based on performance with clear milestones tied to progression.
