Note to Applicants:
This position takes a person who is passionate above sales work. If this is not you, this position will be challenging. We find it is a good fit if a few conditions are met:
-For most people, this position can only be supplementary income, therefore you will want to have a separate full-time day job.
-It will work if you already have many personal priest connections -- a vast network of priest contacts who can fill large travel groups.
-It is sales work – not everyone is comfortable with this role.
To Apply:
Please submit a cover letter, resume, and three professional references to our Pilgrimage Director, [email protected]. Applications will be considered until the positions are filled.
