- Knowledge of 4 and 5 hotels and travel suppliers.
- Experience with HubSpot or similar CRM platforms.
- Knowledge of Argentina, Chile, Patagonia, Ecuador/Galápagos, Colombia, and other South American destinations.

In addition to the base salary, we offer a progressive commission structure based on gross profit generated , starting at 5% and increasing up to 10% based on performance.

If you have strong experience selling customized travel, know Peru exceptionally well, and can confidently engage with U.S. travelers, we would like to hear from you.
