[Hiring] Getaway Planner @Blyss Journeys

Role Description

The Remote Getaway Planner helps clients find short, practical trips that fit within a limited schedule. These may include road trips, beach weekends, city escapes, spa stays, sporting events, concerts, theme parks, festivals, or short cruises.

You will begin by learning how far the client is willing to drive or fly, how many nights are available, what they want to experience, and how much they want to spend. Instead of searching every possible destination, you will focus on options that make sense for the client's departure location and available time.
