Fora is a modern travel agency platform that empowers independent travel advisors to build thriving businesses. Founded in 2021 and now 200+ employees, Fora has raised $60M in Series D funding (2026) and has been recognized as a LinkedIn Top Startup, Fast Company Most Innovative Company, and TIME 100 Most Influential Company.
This role is a senior individual contributor on Fora's in-house travel sales team, responsible for managing a portfolio of high-touch VIP clients while supporting the Director of Travel Sales and the broader advisor team. You will independently manage client relationships and deliver highly personalized service to a select group of premium clients.
Key responsibilities include owning and growing a book of $2M+ in annual travel, managing the full sales cycle from inquiry through booking with compelling proposals and destination recommendations, and serving as a senior resource to the team on complex client requests and destination expertise. A critical part of the role is identifying workflow inefficiencies and driving adoption of AI tools and solutions—testing new approaches, implementing what works, and training others on successful implementations.
You will also coordinate ground transportation, excursions, and special requests for VIP clients, stay current on travel trends and hotel openings, and support the Director with VIP client coverage.
Requirements: 4+ years as a travel advisor with proven track record managing $1M+ in annual bookings. You must have direct experience with high-net-worth or VIP clients in a service or sales capacity, proficiency with AI tools (Claude, ChatGPT, or similar), and comfort with Google Workspace, Slack, and Zoom. Associate's or Bachelor's degree required.
Compensation: $90K–$120K base + commission + equity. Benefits include unlimited vacation, health/dental/vision insurance (with option for fully covered health plan), Wellhub memberships, 401k with company match, commuter benefits, supplemental life insurance, and stock options. Role is based in Fora's Tribeca/FIDI office in downtown Manhattan.
