Becoming a Travel Counsellor could be the perfect opportunity for military veterans actively seeking new opportunities following their time in service.
We are proud to partner with Ex-Military Careers, an organisation dedicated to bridging the gap between life in the military and a civilian career. The transition to a civilian career can seem intimidating, but our partnership provides veterans and their families a stepping stone to setting up their own businesses and becoming travel industry professionals as part of our award-winning team.
Becoming a Travel Counsellor is the perfect next step for military veterans and spouses looking to take on a new career.
We understand that for many veterans, the military is all you’ve ever known. Our ITT-endorsed Travel Academy provides all the training you need to get your business up and running and start you on an exciting new path.

The average Leisure Travel Counsellor takes home £35,000 per year, which is £6,000 more than the standard salary of a high-street travel agent. Top earners can make in excess of £100,000 a year with our coveted ‘Gold Status’.
There is no cap on your earning potential, so the more you put in, the more you can get out. Like the military, the Travel Counsellors business model rewards dedication and hard work.
We know that veterans are accustomed to a sense of togetherness. With nearly 2,000 colleagues in seven different countries, including South Africa and the Netherlands, our global communities are constantly developing.
As part of our dedication to putting people at the heart of our company culture, we’re proud to host regular socials and family events in local areas to develop a sense of community amongst employees.

Here are the key things to remember…
At Travel Counsellors, our commission model is designed to give you a fair share of the profits. Here's how it works: We follow a 60/40 split, where you retain a generous 60% of the profit generated from your bookings.
To provide you with even more control and flexibility, our exclusive in-house booking system, Phenix, allows you to determine the margin you make on your bookings so you can maximise your financial rewards.
We take great pride in the feedback we receive from our Travel Counsellors, who consistently express their satisfaction with the 60/40 split. They tell us that the service and support they receive make it an exceptional value for their investment.
For our Business Development Travel Counsellors, the commission split is agreed upon between themselves and the Corporate Travel Counsellor they pass business on to, during the onboarding process.
