Kosmar to rapidly grow homeworking arm
Kosmar plans to rapidly grow its homeworking division, Tailor Made Experts, to a total of 250 agents by 2023 by launching a new product for new-to-travel recruits
The Sheffield-based company, which has an in-house tour operator, has taken on Hayley Jones and Louise Goodlad as recruitment and training managers.
MD Jhy Worsnop-Hesford said: "I’m absolutely thrilled to see Hayley and Louise will be responsible for recruiting and training our new Tailor Made Experts.
"Both are successful homeworkers with us and harbour a wealth of experience. I’ll be working closely with Louise, Hayley and the support team to make sure we deliver the best possible service for our Tailor Made Experts."
Kosmar currently offers a single homeworking solution for experienced travel professionals with a proven track record. The new strategy, set to be rolled out in early 2021, will see three new packages being introduced tailored to different homeworking needs.
"One of these new packages will see the conception of a training academy which will deliver an in-depth learning programme for new recruits without the usual experience that comes with travel homeworking," added Worsnop-Hesford.
"It’s exciting to see the hard work all coming together now. The benefits that we currently offer our Tailor Made Experts will be mirrored in our three new solutions landing early next year. These include a leading commission of 85%, access to hundreds of suppliers, a 24/7 duty office alongside a central support team and full financial protection for clients."
