About the Role
As a Support Specialist, you'll be responsible for managing customer enquiries, complaints, booking changes, and post-sale support across both our online and retail travel channels.
You'll investigate issues, coordinate solutions, liaise with suppliers, and ensure customer concerns are resolved professionally and efficiently. You'll also play an important role in identifying recurring issues and helping improve processes across the business.
