We work flexibly to accommodate our TAG team colleagues, meaning on occasion there could be requirements ‘outside of office hours’ to manage time zones and other work commitments.
As the Vice President of Procurement, there are several credentials and attributes which would be advantageous but a determined attitude and willingness to learn, are equally important.

You will report into the Chief Operating Officer who is based in Los Angeles. There are other regional teams based in the UK, US, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Saudi Arabia, and South Africa that you may work closely with, too.
The Important Bit
As passionate as you may be about changing the face of travel, let’s be honest – you're not doing this for free. So, here’s our promise to you:
Competitive salary DOE.
We are also committed to offering an equal opportunity for all employees and applicants.
