If working in the office is exciting to you, then keep on reading, and apply to get some travel & tourism experience as a reservation agent*If you're studying hospitality or tourism, this is the perfect summer job. You'll be helping folks make their travel arrangements on our client's network of Atlantic Canadian ferry boats.

*Here's The Deal:

This is a job with regular evenings and weekends. Your schedule will be based on 40 hours per week. The program is open 7:00am to 10:00pm Monday to Sunday and fluctuates depending on business needs. To be considered, you need to be available for 8-hour shifts that fall within those times. Your weekly schedule will rotate through the hours of operations.

Well-developed customer service skills with the ability to quickly establish a positive connection and manage expectations.
Effective communication skills. You'll need to be clear, empathetic, and helpful even if your customer is upset or frustrated.
