GUIDE AND PREPARE INDIVIDUAL STUDENTS FOR WORLD-CLASS WILDLIFE EXPERIENCES
WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS
As our Logistics and Support Coordinator, you will act as the primary point of contact for individual customers and students. By guiding them through a comprehensive pre-departure preparation ecosystem and executing smooth handovers from the Enrollment team, you directly prevent cancellations and secure operational readiness. Your empathetic guidance ensures students and their families feel entirely supported.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING
Customer Journey Coordination: Coordinate the entire customer journey for individual students, serving as their dedicated primary point of contact from initial booking through to final delivery or arrival on site.
High-Touch Onboarding: Manage individual customers or students through a comprehensive, high-touch onboarding and preparation ecosystem.
Outbound Milestone Tracking: Execute proactive multi-channel outbound communication via calls, emails, and instant messaging to guide booked customers through their pre-departure milestones and minimise cancellation risks.
Documentation Vetting: Manage the secure collection, administrative tracking, and rigorous vetting of required travel and enrollment documentation (such as passports, visas, medical forms, and liability waivers) under strict deadlines.
Flawless Sales Handovers: Execute smooth customer handovers from the Sales or Enrollment team, establishing a flawless and reassuring transition from a confirmed booking into the active support phase.
Anxiety De-escalation: De-escalate and resolve high-stress customer complaints, traveller anxieties, or last-minute international travel emergencies calmly under tight timelines.
Stakeholder Management: Balance the delicate communication needs and anxieties of paying parents or guardians with the physical and practical preparation of the actual student or participant.
