Travel agent jobs typically require four or five GCSEs at Grade 4 or above, including Maths and English.  Some may prefer candidates with a BTEC in travel and tourism.

Entry-level positions may start at approximately £18k annually, while experienced agents can earn up to £30k or more.  

Some positions offer bonuses or commissions based on sales performance, which can increase overall earnings.
