About the role
We’re seeking an Antarctica Sales Specialist with a proven track record of high achievement in tailor-made or luxury travel sales. Ideally, you’ve sold Antarctic expeditions before, but we’re equally interested in candidates who have excelled in selling complex, high-value trips to other remote or experiential destinations — and are ready to specialise in the polar regions.
You’ll bring the commercial drive, empathy, and consultative approach needed to guide customers through once-in-a-lifetime travel decisions. You're confident in managing the entire sales cycle, from discovery through to proposal, follow-up, and conversion — and consistently exceed individual targets.
This is a fast-paced, target-driven role. You’ll be proactive in business development, not just relying on inbound enquiries but also identifying and nurturing opportunities. You’ll know how to reinforce the sale through compelling written communication and be the kind of person who stays calm, focused, and resilient under pressure.
Key responsibilities
Manage the full sales cycle for tailor-made Antarctic expeditions — from initial enquiry through discovery, proposal, follow-up, and conversion
Consistently exceed individual sales targets by closing complex, high-value bookings with confidence and precision
Design bespoke itineraries tailored to customer needs, drawing on deep destination knowledge and a consultative sales approach
Proactively generate new business, identifying and pursuing sales opportunities beyond inbound enquiries
Build strong customer relationships, creating trust through active listening, empathy, and expert guidance throughout the booking journey
Craft compelling written proposals and follow-ups that reinforce value and drive conversion
Maintain accurate sales records and manage pipelines using CRM tools and booking platforms
Collaborate cross-functionally with Customer Experience, Product, and Marketing teams to deliver outstanding pre- and post-sale service
Stay up to date on Antarctic products and experiences, including vessels, itineraries, operators, and seasonal trends
Understand and embody Swoop’s four sustainability priorities and embed in your day-to-day responsibilities, decision making, and collaboration
About you
Core experience & skills:
You’re a proven high-performer in luxury or tailor-made travel sales, with a strong track record of exceeding ambitious targets
What will help you thrive:
You thrive in a fast-paced, target-driven environment and are motivated by both individual success and team impact
You’re resilient and self-motivated, bouncing back from setbacks and staying committed to delivering exceptional service
You’re commercially sharp and customer-first, always balancing conversion with long-term value and trust
You take a consultative, empathetic approach to selling, guiding customers through complex, high-value decisions
You’re confident designing and selling bespoke, multi-component itineraries to remote or experiential destinations
You’re naturally proactive in business development, actively identifying and nurturing opportunities rather than waiting for inbound leads
You’re a clear and persuasive communicator, both on the phone and in written proposals or follow-ups
You’re organised, tech-savvy, and comfortable managing pipelines using CRM systems and booking platforms
You value collaboration and integrity, and align with Swoop’s values of sustainability, adventure, and exceptional service
You may have first-hand experience of the polar regions, particularly Antarctica — or you’re ready to specialise in this extraordinary part of the world
