Marketing Placement

We have several roles within our marketing team across Customer Experience, Digital Marketing and Marketing Research. You’ll collaborate with Travelport’s entire Marketing community where you’ll work closely with our Digital team, PR, Sales, and Internal Communications.

What’s Travelport?

Travelport is a place of opportunity. It’s our incredible team that makes our company great – our people drive our winning culture.

Travelport is the brains behind lots of your travel bookings. Plane, car or hotel. You name it, we do it. Our technology is used to book that magical family holiday, amazing birthday getaway or spontaneous weekend getaway. While we can't solve mosquito bites or lost luggage, we can simplify a lot of the technical parts of travel, and we're looking for the best thinkers to help us do it.

Annually, we run a 13-month (July – July) internship program comprised of four pillars: 

• The Job - You’ll get the opportunity to dive into the world of marketing and specialise in customer experience, digital marketing or marketing research.

• Learning and Development – You’ll receive training sessions designed to support your personal and professional development while also equipping you with industry specific skills. 
• ‘Internpreneurship’ (see what we did there?) – You’ll have the opportunity to develop solutions to real business problems which Travelport has and present your ideas to the Senior leadership team and/or external companies.

Our internships are for students seeking a placement year for their third year of their undergraduate degree.

We offer ambitious students like you the opportunity to participate in an immersive and rewarding internship like no other. Because at Travelport, you’ll get the chance to apply your skills and offer solutions to projects that truly matter!
