The company revealed the milestone on Monday (4 December) after recruiting 300 new members over the past year to date, 20 of those coming in November alone. This is up 30% on last year, when Travel Counsellors recruited 210 members.
The latest cohort comprises not only industry veterans but also people from a variety of different sectors and backgrounds, including actors, photographers, marketing professionals and ex-military personnel. All recruits go through a comprehensive training programme and are paired with more established counsellors, regardless of their prior travel experience.
