Working at TravelEssence

Product Manager

Are you experienced in sales, business and relationship development? Are you enthusiastic about travel and have an eye for the details that make the difference between a good place to stay and something exceptional? Are you commercially driven, organised and have strong interpersonal and communication skills to develop strong, well founded two way relationships? And are you seeking a fun, dynamic role where there is space for personal development, responsibility and initiative? Are you independent but also wanting to be part of an industry leading team of innovators? And, have you travelled off the beaten track in Australia and New Zealand?

TravelEssence is a mid to high end travel specialist based in the Netherlands, with sales activities in 6 European countries, including Germany and the United Kingdom. We focus on small unique places to stay and things to do away from the masses. We are regarded as Europe's main, and most innovative Down Under specialist. We send our European and UK clients to Australia and New Zealand on bespoke, tailor-made holidays where they get to experience Down Under through the eyes of the locals. We focus on sustainable, authentic, small-scale experiences and properties, run by enthusiastic passionate hosts.

Due to ongoing expansion and growth, we are growing our New Zealand based office to better seek and develop new supplier relationships. We believe in personal contact with our accommodation and activity hosts, thus you need to be able to contact and visit suppliers throughout New Zealand and Australia.

As a Product Manager you are actively looking for the most special locations and places in New Zealand and Australia for our European and UK travellers. You are supported by a strong professional and experienced team to maintain and manage the ongoing relationships.

Responsibilities:

You are our ideal candidate if you are commercial, service-oriented and goal-oriented. You must also be able to easily negotiate with our suppliers. It is important that you work autonomously and accurately, and that you are able to set priorities and take responsibility.

Skills and capabilities

Working for TravelEssence means:

We are looking for someone who is based near Auckland or Wellington, though we are on the road often and work remotely from home.
