Do you dream about faraway places? We're looking for people with curiosity, attention to detail and a hunger for growth to join us.

About us

We're a luxury travel company designing private journeys, with a focus on unique travel experiences around the world.

A rare opportunity

This is a chance to get inside the world of ultra-luxury travel, a world very few people ever see from the inside. You'll work directly alongside the founder. You'll see how journeys to some of the most remarkable places on earth are imagined, negotiated and brought to life, and you'll be part of making it happen from day one.

As the company grows, so will you. The right person will grow with us into a role with real responsibility and travel.

Your adventure with us

One morning you're building a sheet that makes sense of twenty options. That evening you're helping a family on the other side of the world. No two days are the same, and you'll learn every part of how a luxury travel business runs.

We hire for personality and train for skill. We're looking for someone who is excited to work alongside the founder, wants to learn something new every day, and is detail-oriented, hungry for more, and flexible with both timings and tasks.

What you'll be part of

- Coordinating bookings, confirmations, visas, flights and transfers with our partners and suppliers
- Building real relationships with our partners (tour companies, DMCS,



hotels, etc.) around the world - you are confident
- Talking with clients warmly and clearly, by email, phone and WhatsApp
- Handling changes and special requests quickly and accurately
- Supporting journeys while families are travelling, including when plans change
- Keeping trackers, payments and timelines organised in Google Sheets and Docs
- Saying yes to whatever the day brings, small or big
- Researching destinations, lodges and experiences most people have never heard of
- Preparing itineraries, quotes and travel documents

You might be the one if

- You're excited to work closely with a founder and learn every single day
- You're detail-oriented. You notice what others miss, and check names, dates and numbers twice before you press send
- You're hungry for more: more to learn, more responsibility, more of the world
- You're flexible with timings. Our clients travel across time zones, and journeys don't keep office hours
- You're versatile with tasks, happy to go from a spreadsheet to a client call to a research deep dive in one day
- You write and speak excellent English, and your emails are clear, warm and mistake-free
- You speak Tamil (a real plus)
- Travel lights you up, and you're endlessly curious about the world
- You're confident with people and know how to make a client feel looked after
- You're comfortable with Google Sheets, Docs and email




- You know how to keep a confidence

Experience Experience in travel, tourism or hospitality is a huge plus. Beginners are welcome too. Everyone joins with a training period, so you'll learn how we work before you take the lead on anything.

Who this isn't for

- This isn't a corporate job, with fixed processes and a clear ladder
- It isn't for someone who wants a 9 to 5
- It isn't for someone who prefers to do only what's in the

If that sounds like freedom rather than a warning, you're who we're looking for. What's in it for you

- Remote, from anywhere in India
- Learning directly from the founder
- A role that grows as the company grows, with travel along the way
