  • Bridge communications : Act as the vital link between our participants and internal departments, ensuring clear understanding of requirements and deliverables.
  • Proactive problem solving : Anticipate client needs and address potential challenges proactively, maintaining high levels of satisfaction.
  • Support growth and impact : Collaborate with sales and business development through offering tailored solutions and supporting new business meetings where required.
  • Manage pre-departure support : Assist travellers with documentation collection, payment chasing, expectation management, and host engaging webinars.
  • Why work at World of Difference?

    If you want your work to matter, this is the place for you. You’ll be part of a fast-paced, fun, and purpose-driven environment dedicated to creating transformative experiences that connect people, cultures, and communities for a better world.
