What we do
The team on the ground behind someone else's brand
A single booking touches almost every team. Sales agrees the brief with the partner, contracting has the hotel, coach and activity rates ready, reservations confirms every service, and operations and guides meet the guests when they land. Finance invoices and collects in the partner's currency, and legal keeps the contracts and licences sound in every country.
Group compliance, legal and statutory frameworks run through our Hong Kong headquarters, so a partner working with Explera in six countries deals with one company and one set of standards.
Explera is a B2B destination management company. Travel agents, tour operators and OTAs sell the trip; we build it and run it on the ground in India, Thailand, Japan, South Korea, Indonesia and Hong Kong. Our name is rarely on the guest's itinerary, which is exactly the point: partners trust us with their customers.

How we work

Turn a tile over to read more. These are the ways of working our teams describe and our job posts ask for.
- 01
Partners first
We work for travel agents and tour operators.

- 02
One file, one owner
Responsibility starts early.

- 03

Who thrives here
People who like the ground as much as the desk
No single profile fits every team, but the people who do well here tend to share a few traits.
- 01
Calm when plans change
Flights move, weather turns, a coach breaks down. You solve the problem first and write the report after.
- 02
Precise with details
Names, flight numbers, room types and pickup times. Small details are what partners remember.
- 03
At home across cultures
You work with colleagues and partners across India, Southeast Asia, East Asia and the Gulf, often in the same day.
- 04
Fluent in more than words
You speak a partner's language, or you want to learn. Many roles list the language and level they need.
- 05
Owner, not passenger
You follow a file from quote to departure and keep your promises to partners and colleagues.
- 06
Curious about places
You want to know the hotel, the road and the restaurant, not just the rate sheet.

Questions candidates ask
All questionsHow long does the hiring process take?
Most roles take three to four weeks from application to offer. Screening happens within five working days, and we tell you if timings change.
How do I apply?
Apply online with the Apply button on any job page. It takes about five minutes and you can track your application from your status page. You can also email your CV to hr@expleradmc.com with the job title in the subject line.
Can I apply for more than one role?
Yes. Apply to each role separately. If two roles are a close match, the recruiters will coordinate so you only interview once.
Do I need to speak a language other than English?
Only where the job post says so. Each role lists the languages and levels required, such as Japanese JLPT N2 or Korean TOPIK 5.
Do you support work permits?
For some roles in Thailand, Japan and Indonesia we support work-permit applications. The job post and your recruiter will confirm this for each role.
What happens to my data?
We keep your application for the period in our candidate privacy notice, then anonymise it. You can ask us to delete it at any time from your application status page or by emailing hr@expleradmc.com.
How do I check my application status?
Your confirmation email includes a private link to the status page. It shows your current stage, any scheduled interviews and offers, and updates when anything changes.
Do you accept applications from outside the country of the role?
Yes, unless the job post says the role requires existing work rights. Remote roles list the countries candidates can work from.
What is the talent community?
A way to share your profile once without applying for a specific job. Recruiters contact members when a matching role opens in their preferred country or team.
What is a destination management company?
A DMC is the local partner that plans and runs trips on the ground. Explera works business to business: travel agents, tour operators and OTAs sell the trip to their customers, and our teams contract the services, confirm every booking and look after the guests while they travel.
Do I need travel industry experience?
Not for every role. Internships and many entry-level roles welcome students and recent graduates in tourism, hospitality, business, marketing or languages. Each job post lists the experience it needs.
Are there internships?
Yes. We offer local internships in our offices and remote internships across our six countries. Open internships are listed on the jobs page under the Internship employment type.
Can I move to another country later?
Internal roles are shared with employees first, and moves between countries and teams are common. Work-permit support depends on the role and the country.
