Travel Editor

About the Opportunity

Kensington Tours has spent two decades building a reputation as the world's leading provider of private guided travel. Now we're building the editorial voice to match.

This is not a content marketing role. We're looking for an editor who thinks like the teams behind the world's most trusted financial and news publications, someone who understands that authority is earned through curation, consistency, and editorial discipline. You'll shape how Kensington Tours communicates the world of travel to our clients: what's happening, what matters, and what it means for how they should plan their next journey.

• Design and iterate on newsletter layout and templates, including sections for breaking travel news, regional updates, product spotlights, and partner integrations.
• Trust & Credibility
• Build source relationships with travel publications; negotiate content-sharing arrangements that benefit both parties.
• Establish editorial standards, style and editorial tone that position Kensington as the credible, trusted authoritative voice.
• Maintain clear separation between news judgment and commercial interests.
• Integrate unlocked insight from Kensington's Destination Expert and Kensington team.
• Performance & Iteration
• Skilled in leading structured A/B testing to determine what formats and stories drive optimal engagement, sales leads and KPI achievement.
• Track reader behavior and feedback to continuously sharpen editorial
• Analyze, report and present to leadership on newsletter performance, your optimizations and its direct impact on leads and travel bookings

• Experience in newsletter product development: layout, hierarchy, pacing, to drive optimization of KPI delivery.
• Experience managing content-sharing or syndication relationships with publishers.
• Skilled in A/B testing and proficient in analytics and PBI to drive constant optimizations of KPI delivery
