The brief

A travel agency is required to collaborate on the design and delivery of bespoke UK and international travel programmes for supporters and advocates of the British Council.

The agency should be able to prepare and organise a fully packaged trip (including itinerary, event management, transportation, accommodation and catering) designed in collaboration with the British Council's Development team.

The agency will also be required to liaise with potential and confirmed participants - which will include high-net-worth / ultra-high-net-worth individuals and supporters of British Council - on their travel arrangements and to process their trip payments.

Travel programmes will be paid for by the participants; the agency will be required to produce a budget for each individual travel programme that incorporates all costs (including British Council staff attendance) and therefore advises: a) the suggested cost to participants, and b) the minimum number of participants required to ensure that the programme operates cost neutrally to the British Council.
