South Korea Holiday Advisor – B2B

About Explera DMC

Explera DMC is a premier Destination Management Company dedicated to delivering exceptional travel and event experiences worldwide. We operate with a global mindset while maintaining rigorous compliance standards, with all legal and statutory frameworks governed and fulfilled through our Hong Kong headquarters.

Role overview

We are seeking a knowledgeable and commercially minded South Korea Holiday Advisor to be the destination expert for the travel agents, tour operators and OTAs who book South Korea with us. Explera is a B2B DMC: we do not sell to travellers directly. Partners send us their clients, and we plan and deliver the trip on the ground.

You will turn partner enquiries into clear, well-priced itineraries for honeymooners, families, FIT travellers and small groups, follow up until they confirm, and hand complete files to our operations team in Seoul.

2. Partner sales & conversion

• Follow up every open quotation and convert enquiries into confirmed bookings
• Build strong relationships with partner agents in India, the Gulf and South-East Asia
• Train partner agents on South Korea in short online sessions and share new products, offers and travel advisories

3. Booking handover & coordination

• Hand confirmed bookings to operations with complete, accurate files
• Coordinate with contracting on rates, allotments and availability
• Keep partners updated from confirmation until departure

4. Systems & reporting

• Record every enquiry, quotation and booking in our booking system and CRM
• Report weekly on your pipeline, conversion rate and margin

Requirements

• 2+ years in travel sales, reservations or itinerary planning, ideally selling South Korea
• Strong knowledge of South Korea's key cities, hotels, seasons and experiences
• Fluent written and spoken English
• Korean is a plus
• Quick, accurate costing in Excel or a booking system
• Customer-first, organised and comfortable working to same-day deadlines
