โœ… What Youโ€™ll Be Doing

  • Engage with travelers in real-time (primarily via WhatsApp) to understand their needs, preferences, and concernsโ€”often before they even articulate them.
  • Research and recommend hotels, restaurants, and attractions using a blend of AI tools and strong human judgmentโ€”your insights matter more than the algorithmโ€™s.
  • Book hotels, rental cars, and coordinate travel logistics across multiple platforms with an eagle eye for detail.
  • Handle special requests and liaise with hotels or vendors to ensure clients receive VIP treatment from start to finish.
  • Write and curate destination guides with a voice that blends editorial polish and practical insightโ€”covering neighborhoods, dining, hidden gems, and must-sees.

  • Respond quickly and thoughtfully to incoming chatsโ€”initial responses should land within 10โ€“20 minutes during your shift.

๐ŸŒŸ Who You Are

  • An intuitive thinkerโ€”you use AI to accelerate your work, not replace your judgment. You can spot when suggestions donโ€™t make sense and adjust accordingly.
  • A strong online researcherโ€”you know how to dig into Google Maps, local blogs, menu PDFs, booking sites, Reddit threads, and more to verify every detail.
  • Empathetic and client-obsessedโ€”you think like a traveler: you get what it means to need gluten-free food in Tokyo, or how exhausting it is to fly into Paris and transfer trains the same day with kids.
  • Detail-obsessed and risk-awareโ€”you catch inconsistencies in time zones, currency, locations, and itineraries before they become problems.
  • Self-taught and endlessly curiousโ€”you love learning about new cities, destinations, travel hacks, and tools, and you donโ€™t wait to be trained.
  • Fast but thoughtfulโ€”you respond quickly but never rush. Every reply is polished, clear, and intentional.
  • An exceptional communicatorโ€”your written English is warm, modern, and concise. You can strike the right tone for every situation.
  • Tech-savvy and organizedโ€”youโ€™re confident using tools like Slack, WhatsApp, Google Sheets/Docs, and online booking platforms.
  • Reliable and independentโ€”you have a strong internet connection and a distraction-free work setup for voice/video calls when needed.
