Distribution Executive

 

Initial 3-Month Fixed Term Contract (with potential to become permanent)

£27,000 pro rata + monthly incentive

Looking to get your foot in the travel industry? Whether you’re a recent graduate, between roles or simply looking for your next opportunity, this could be the perfect role.

We’re looking for a Distribution Executive to join Oliver’s Travels for an initial three-month fixed term contract. You’ll help guests booking through channels like Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo, delivering outstanding customer service and helping convert enquiries into bookings.

For the right person, there’s a genuine opportunity for the role to become permanent, with your focus evolving from sales into helping grow and optimise our third-party distribution channels.

Please note: During the initial contract, you’ll work Thursday-Monday (Thursday, Friday and Monday in our Oval office, Saturday and Sunday remotely). If the role becomes permanent, it will move to a standard Monday-Friday working pattern.

 

What you’ll be doing

During your first three months

You’ll be responsible for helping guests booking through our third-party partners, including Airbnb, Booking.com and Vrbo. You’ll:

  • Respond to guest enquiries via partner platforms and email.
  • Turn enquiries into bookings by providing exceptional customer service.
  • Manage bookings from enquiry through to confirmation.
  • Complete post-booking administration, ensuring every booking runs smoothly.
  • Liaise with homeowners to confirm availability, pricing and special requests.
  • Work towards monthly sales targets and help maximise bookings.

If the role becomes permanent

You’ll help us grow our distribution business by:

  • Optimising our portfolio across third-party channels.
  • Improving processes and automation.
  • Supporting new distribution partnerships.
  • Investigating and resolving channel integration issues.
  • Identifying opportunities to increase bookings and improve performance.

 

What we’re looking for

We’re much more interested in attitude than experience. You’ll be someone who:

  • Loves helping people and delivering exceptional customer service.
  • Is a confident and friendly communicator.
  • Has excellent attention to detail.
  • Learns new systems and technology quickly.
  • Enjoys solving problems and finding better ways of doing things.
  • Thrives in a fast-paced environment.
  • Is motivated by targets and takes pride in delivering results.
  • Works well as part of a collaborative team.

Recent graduates and those looking to start a career in travel are encouraged to apply.

 

Working Pattern (Please Read)

This role follows a Thursday-Monday working pattern during the initial fixed-term contract. You’ll work:

  • Thursday, Friday and Monday from our Oval office.
  • Saturday and Sunday remotely from home.

Should the role become permanent following the initial contract, we’d expect it to move to a more typical Monday-Friday working pattern as the focus shifts towards distribution optimisation and channel management.
