At Exodus, we love adventure travel and always have. We first took a group of travellers to the Himalaya 50 years ago and have since expanded to every continent of the planet. Today, we offer hundreds of itineraries across the globe, focusing on responsible travel that supports local communities and preserves the environment while aiming to provide meaningful experiences to all who travel with us.

We are looking to hire a Group Tours Innovation Manager, known internally as the Senior Product Innovation Manager, to join our team! Reporting to our Product & Commercial Director, this brand-new role is all about pushing boundaries and bringing to life unforgettable travel experiences that excite, inspire, and stand out.

As traveller expectations continue to evolve, we’re looking for someone who doesn’t just keep up, but gets ahead of the curve. You’ll spot the trends before they go mainstream, dream up original concepts, and work globally to turn great ideas into groundbreaking adventures. You’ll also help shape and evolve our existing range, keeping it fresh, relevant and packed with reasons to book!

What we’ll offer:

• Competitive salary with bonus scheme
• Annual review related to performance
• Hybrid working (2 days in the office)
• 33 days annual leave that increases with length of service (including bank holidays)
• The opportunity to buy up to 10 days additional holidays per annum
• An enhanced employer contribution pension scheme
• Life insurance
• Travel benefits and retailer discounts
  
  

• Lead our product innovation strategy, bringing fresh thinking that aligns with our brand vision and commercial goals.
• Keep your finger on the pulse of the industry and our competitors, identifying emerging trends and translating them into viable product ideas.
• Partner with overseas suppliers to design, contract, and deliver new itineraries and experiences that engage our customers and meet our commercial targets.
• Work seamlessly with Marketing, Sales, and Operations to ensure flawless product launches and maximum impact.
• Own the end-to-end product development lifecycle (from concept to market launch) ensuring every new product hits the mark.
• Continuously review and improve our product performance, using insights and feedback to keep us ahead of the game.
• Champion a culture of innovation within the team, encouraging experimentation, curiosity and willingness to change.
• Build positive relationships across the business, making sure new product initiatives are adopted, supported and celebrated.
• Be responsible for the innovation budget and prioritise resources to deliver the biggest return.
  
  

• Proven experience in small group or FIT travel product development
• A proven track record of launching creative, commercially successful products within the travel or adventure sector.
• A deep understanding of the travel market, including emerging trends, consumer behaviours, and competitive landscapes.
• Firsthand travel experience and a personal passion for immersive, off-the-beaten-track adventures.
• Sharp analytical skills and a data-led approach to decision making.
• Excellent relationship-building and communication skills - able to influence, inspire and collaborate at every level.
• Someone who consistently generates creative ideas, approaches tasks strategically, and takes initiative to complete projects.
• Resilience, adaptability and a love of fast-paced environments.
• Familiarity with the North American source market would be a real plus.
