Job Title: Director of Sales & Marketing
Company Description:
Legendary Expeditions own and operate luxury safari camps and lodges in
Tanzania, where the most prolific wildlife reserves in the world are
experienced firsthand, and no two days are the same. Our guests might
follow the annual migration of millions of animals across the savannah
grasslands, or spend a morning quietly observing a single family of
lionesses and their cubs. In the
evening, sundowners and a gourmet dinner are served around a blazing
campfire under a star-filled sky where stories are told before our
adventurers retire for the night in their luxury tents. Connected by
private air transfers, our growing collection of camps and lodges is
underpinned by our dedicated conservation efforts, and our commitment to
support the local communities. People who know us choose to return for
experiences that will touch their soul and create memories that last a
lifetime. http://www.legendaryexpeditions.com/
