About Jones & Co
Jones & Co is a specialist travel representation company, acting as the local sales and marketing arm for a curated portfolio of international travel partners - including hotels, resorts, luxury boutique cruises, tour operators, and destination experiences. We bridge the gap between our partners and the ANZ travel trade, ensuring that the industry has the knowledge, tools, and enthusiasm to confidently sell our partners’ products to their clients.
Our representation model means we work closely with each partner to understand their brand, key selling points, and target markets, then we take that message directly into the trade through proactive sales activity, training, and relationship-building.

You bring a couple of years of experience in travel sales or a related field, a natural flair for building connections, and the confidence to present and pitch across a range of settings, from a one-on-one coffee catch-up to a trade event in front of a room full of agents.
