Corporate Travel Jobs
Corporate travel professionals work in a company's travel department, which arranges business travel for employees. While much of the work is supervisory in nature, they sometimes make reservations and choose transportation and lodging for company employees within the economic guidelines established by the company. They advise employees about passport and visa requirements, rates of currency exchange, and import duties.
The responsibilities of a corporate travel manager may go far beyond these tasks and include personnel relocation, convention planning, corporate aircraft administration, and group vacation organization for employees.
Corporate travel professionals must be proficient in the use of a computer. They must possess superior networking skills and must be willing to work in a dynamic environment. They must be able to maintain a cool head under pressure.
With more and more companies setting up corporate travel departments, the employment outlook for corporate travel professionals is predicted to be good. Besides booking flights and hotel rooms, corporate travel agents may be involved with personnel relocation and meeting and convention planning. They tend to advance by moving into a higher position in the corporate travel department of another company.
Corporate travel professionals work in modern, well-lighted offices. They spend a great deal of time at a computer terminal or on the telephone. They need to keep up with the latest travel industry news and other information vital to the travel planning process. Because their clientele is fairly fixed, corporate travel professionals must establish a reputation for discretion and reliability within the company.

I learned about one of these men when I was in college, and I heard about the other man several years later, when I was a recruiter. For the past several years, I have puzzled over the stories of these t... |
