About the Role

Do you love connecting with people, presenting on camera, and talking about travel — but dislike the high-pressure environment of closing sales? Ascend Vacation Group is seeking a polished, energetic Travel Program Educator to host live virtual sessions introducing families to our vacation membership program. In this role, your only goal is education and client experience.

You'll meet with scheduled guests via Zoom, give them a guided tour of our travel platform, and get them excited about their benefits. Once guests understand how the program works, you simply introduce them to a Travel Director who takes over to handle all pricing and enrollment details. If you have a welcoming virtual presence and love guiding structured conversations, this is a highly rewarding way to work from home.

What You'll Do

  • Host engaging Zoom presentations: Conduct professional, structured virtual sessions introducing pre-scheduled guests to our vacation platform.
  • Guide the tour: Share your screen to walk guests through the platform, highlighting key features, travel benefits, and how the program works.
  • Create a five-star experience: Build instant rapport, answer general questions, and ensure guests feel comfortable, informed, and excited.
  • Execute a seamless handoff: At the appropriate time, smoothly transition the call to a Travel Director who will handle all financial and enrollment discussions.
  • Keep things organized: Document brief, accurate notes about the session in our CRM system.

Who We're Looking For

  • A natural presenter: You are confident, comfortable, and articulate on camera.
  • Warm & professional: You have a patient, welcoming communication style that puts people at ease.
  • Tech-savvy: You can effortlessly navigate Zoom, share your screen, and use basic CRM software without missing a beat.
  • Reliable: You are organized, dependable, and have a quiet, professional home office setup with high-speed internet.

Schedule

This role caters to our clients' availability, making it perfect for someone looking for a non-traditional or supplemental schedule. You'll work approximately 20–25 hours per week:

  • Tuesday – Friday: Evening availability required.
  • Saturday: Morning availability required.
  • Sunday & Monday: Off.

What We Offer

  • Great base pay: $25.00 per hour.
  • Bonus potential: Performance bonuses tied to your presentation quality and team outcomes.
  • Work from home: 100% remote, no commute.
  • Set up for success: A structured training program and a proven presentation framework.
  • A fun industry: A highly supportive, travel-focused company culture.

About the Role

Ascend Vacation Group is seeking a charismatic, high-energy Podium Presenter to lead our live Zoom showcases. As an authorized distributor for Global Discovery Vacations — one of the nation's most trusted wholesale travel networks — we show families how to travel smarter.

We're looking for a confident communicator who can take a group of qualified guests on an engaging 45- to 60-minute journey, helping them understand the real value of wholesale travel and feel genuinely excited about their options.

What You'll Do

  • Lead the room: Host live, group Zoom presentations (cameras on!) for 4 to 8 qualified households at a time.
  • Showcase the value: Use our proven slide deck to highlight the benefits of wholesale travel — think condos from $289/week, discounted cruises, and premium hotels.
  • Guide the experience: Move the session smoothly from education to next steps, introducing our Travel Guides who handle enrollment details.
  • Maintain the energy: Keep engagement high, field questions with confidence and warmth, and manage the flow and pacing of the virtual room.

Who You Are

  • Engaging & trustworthy: You connect with people authentically and answer questions with clarity and confidence.
  • Tech-savvy: You're entirely comfortable managing a Zoom room, screen sharing, and troubleshooting on the fly without breaking a sweat.
  • Polished: You have a highly professional, trustworthy, and dynamic on-camera presence.

Requirements

  • Proven experience in public speaking, stage acting, or group presentations.
  • A professional home office setup including high-speed internet, a high-quality webcam, and proper lighting.
  • The ability to internalize a script, read the room, and make the presentation your own.

How to Apply — The Audition

Because this role is all about on-camera presence, a resume alone won't cut it — we'd love to see you in action. Please submit your resume along with a quick 60-second video introducing yourself and telling us why you'd be a great voice for Ascend Vacation Group.
