Join Brown + Hudson on our mission to disrupt luxury travel.
Operations Executive:
Are you tired of the same old, same old tedious conventions and sales-driven approach to luxury travel? Do you feel like a cog in your current employer's sales machine? Do you want to benefit directly from the work you do? Do you think there could be a different way? An approach that gives you greater personal satisfaction, your clients better experiences, and you higher revenue?
Who are we?
We've been leading the luxury travel industry for 15 years, organising unique travel experiences for ultra-high-net-worth individuals and their families globally. For us, travel is much more than a tick-list of destinations in luxurious hotels, resorts, and private islands. It's about transformation, growth, building meaningful memories, and achieving our client’s goals. We think big focusing on the WHY and HOW, and then the where.
What does that look like in practice?
- Janette is a huge James Bond fan, on her trip to Iceland we arranged for her to meet Leifur Dagfinnsson, the man in charge of shooting the Icelandic scenes in Die Another Day.
- Hugo was frustrated as his teen children were not interested in the idea of a family holiday. We discovered they loved computer games, so we created a totally gamified luxury travel experience - a 14-day escape room journey
- The Malkovich family wanted their vacation memories to last forever so we created a Virtual Reality extension of their trip so that they could continue their journey of discovery long after they returned home.
- For the extended Diller family, we chartered one of the world’s most stunning mega-yachts and turned each day into a fairy tale land adventure culminating in a never to be repeated grand finale involving a cast of hundreds
Who are we looking for?
- A team player who brings energy and a positive attitude to their work
- Must have at least 2 years experience planning travel for clients
- Over 3 years experience working preferably in the luxury and/or service

- Big and creative ideas - everything we do is bespoke, unique, and often never to be repeated
