Travel Sales Consultant

Travel Sales Consultant, Western Canada Location: Vancouver, BC - Hybrid (Monday-Thursday on site, Fridays optional WFH) EF Educational Tours helps teachers change their students’ lives through educational travel, with itineraries designed around experiential learning that spark curiosity, confidence, and connection. Our mission is to open the world through education—helping people see new places, experience new cultures, and discover more about the world and themselves. As a Travel Sales Consultant, you’ll be on the front lines of our sales team, driving growth through proactive outreach. Your focus will be making outbound calls to teachers across Canada, sparking new conversations every day and turning fresh prospects into long‑term partners. Rather than waiting for opportunities to come to you, you’ll be creating them—introducing educators to the transformative power of educational travel and inspiring them to bring these experiences to their students. You'll build long‑term relationships with your customers and help them along their journey—before, during, and after travel. If you’re energized by the thrill of cold calling, building a pipeline from scratch, and hitting ambitious targets, this is the role for you. Every call is a chance to change lives and open doors to the world. What You’ll Do Acquire and grow your customer base within your assigned territory by identifying, developing, and executing opportunities to drive growth. Build lasting partnerships with teachers and educators— inspiring them to lead travel programs and helping them every step of the way, from recruitment through safe return home. Prospect and expand your pipeline through strategic outreach—cold calls, networking, creative email campaigns, and uncovering new markets. Deliver results by forecasting and achieving monthly and quarterly sales goals. Communicate effectively through email, phone, video calls, and in‑person meetings to engage and support your customers. Collaborate cross‑functionally with internal teams to ensure every tour runs smoothly and exceeds expectations. Sell with purpose—you’re not just selling a product; you’re helping students see the world, grow their confidence, and expand their horizons. Who You Are You’re eager to start your career in sales with a role that offers real responsibility and accountability—an entrepreneur at heart, you’re ready to take charge and forge your own path to success. You’re a natural at connecting with people and building relationships—you can build rapport with a complete stranger in a matter of minutes. You’re goal‑oriented and relentless—there’s no better feeling to you than hitting a target, and you’re motivated by the challenge of surpassing it. You’re entrepreneurial by nature—driven to open doors, uncover prospects, and seek out new opportunities rather than waiting for them to come to you. You’re fiercely competitive—in a collaborative, team‑player sort‑of‑way. You’re adaptable and resourceful—you don’t shy away from tough calls, creative outreach, or thinking outside the box to get in front of the right people. You’re a great persuasive communicator and natural networker, who loves talking to people and sharing your passion. You want to be part of a team that motivates and inspires you.
