  • Coordinate and make necessary changes to existing travel arrangements using established company guidelines

  • Troubleshoot issues and identify practical solutions that minimize operational disruption and unnecessary travel costs

  • Determine when an issue can be resolved independently versus when it requires escalation

  • Escalate urgent or high-impact issues to the appropriate on-call team member or leader

  • Excellent written and verbal communication

  • Ability to remain calm and solutions-oriented when handling time-sensitive issues

  • Strong judgment and ability to independently triage requests

  • High level of reliability and responsiveness during scheduled coverage

  • Comfort working independently with limited real-time supervision

  • Ability to follow established policies while using good judgment when unexpected situations arise

  • Comfort working across multiple systems and communication channels

Preferred Qualifications

  • Previous experience in travel coordination, logistics, operations, dispatch, field support, customer support, or a similar role

  • Experience supporting employees or teams who travel frequently

  • Experience handling urgent or after-hours operational issues

  • Familiarity with Slack and travel booking platforms
