Our concierge team operates around the clock across multiple time zones, so shift assignment is flexible and will be determined based on team coverage needs and your availability. Why Axel Axel is reinventing travel booking and concierge service for our members. You'll be part of a small, high-leverage team where your GDS expertise directly shapes the member experience, not buried in a back office.
