When working with Selective Travel Management, you will benefit from the knowledge and expertise of one of our dedicated Account Managers. Your Account Manager will act as your liaison, with the key purpose of ensuring that you benefit from and maximise the cost effectiveness of using us as your Travel Management Company.

As we continue to extend and enhance our service offerings, your Account Manager will ensure that your company and employees are at the heart of any new developments and improvements that we make. This also includes advice on new technology implementations as well as organising training sessions and travel clinics with your company when required.
At Selective Travel Management, the safety and security of your travellers is our priority. We are committed to providing a first-rate service that meets and supports your Duty of Care Policy.

Depending on the severity of the situation, we send travel alerts to both travellers and employers to make them aware of ongoing incidents in the world and whether it may affect their business trip.
