Testimonials:

“My name is Marta and I’m currently the intern Marketing Assistant at Kumuka Worldwide, Sydney Office. I have joined Kumuka in May 2010 as an intern. I am an Italian student in Tourism Management at the University of Milan. I have done 6 months internship and I have learnt a lot and I have put in practice what I have been studying for years. It was a great experience for me as I was able to work in all the different departments and I have collaborated in interesting projects.

The team here in Sydney is fantastic, with young, dynamic and motivated people. They were always ready to help me and to assist me when I was in need. You’re all working together towards a common goal and it was really challenging as you feel part of the team, not just an intern.

I have started in the Marketing Department helping compose press releases, dealing with Tourism Boards and developing some interesting projects. Then I have started to help the Operational Department doing many cost comparisons, researches about competitors, and analysing performance of Kumuka pricing strategy in relation to competitors. Meanwhile I was helping the Reservation Team with daily and administration tasks.

Kumuka has started to give me responsibility very early on. It was really challenging and I have learnt to deal with new tasks without going looking for them. Even if at the beginning it was a bit scary for me as my mother tongue it’s Italian and it was my first work experience abroad, I can definitely say that the responsibilities they gave me made me grown so much and I had the feeling that this was more than a standard internship. Now that I have finished this fantastic experience I can definitely recommend Kumuka to everyone!

If you want to apply you really just have to have the passion and enthusiasm for the travel industry and for adventurous travel company and then it will be a really great experience. “
