Meet Our BDMs: Joe Higson, raising the bar for business travel
Meet Joe, a BDM at Travel Counsellors for Business, who shares how he strengthens duty of care and elevates every trip with personalised support.
How we turn complex sector travel into a strategic advantage for energy businesses through expertise, 24-hour support and actionable insight.
Managing travel for the energy sector is unlike any other corporate travel programme. The stakes are higher, the logistics are more complex, and the margin for error is razor-thin.
That’s where Travel Counsellors for Business comes in. When a critical project is on the line or a rotational crew needs to be mobilised, you are not just booking a flight; you are moving essential personnel who power global operations. We provide a travel management approach built on precision, reliability, and an unwavering commitment to safety.
At Travel Counsellors for Business, we know the energy and oil sector poses challenges that standard travel solutions cannot tackle. Your itineraries are rarely predictable, urgent crew rotations, remote site deployments, and last-minute mobilisations all demand fast, flexible solutions. We ensure your people get to the most challenging locations, however tight the timeline or complex the journey.
Managing disruption, budget pressures, and the growing need for robust ESG reporting is also central to what we do. We provide proactive management, tailored logistical expertise, and comprehensive reporting tools to help you control costs, minimise downtime, support duty of care, and meet your sustainability aims, while always putting your people’s safety first.
We provide more than just ticket bookings. Acting as an extension of your team, we deliver the expertise and infrastructure required to manage the complexities of your travel programme. We work to turn logistical hurdles into smooth processes, allowing you to keep your focus on core business priorities.
Our support includes:
Reliable 24/7 help from our travel consultants who understand your sector, along with proactive crisis management and traveller tracking.
Expert handling of complex documentation, and a dedicated visa team to keep you compliant and avoid delays.
Access to specialist fares as well as flexible ticketing that supports crew requirements and logistical changes.
We design clear travel policies, support with pre trip approvals, and ensure our systems can integrate with your HR or crew rotation software to save valuable time.
Consolidated reporting lets you track spend, identify savings, and monitor your carbon footprint to meet ESG goals.
With Travel Counsellors for Business, you can expect operational excellence and measurable commercial impact. By getting crews and experts to where they are needed without delay, we help prevent costly project downtime and keep assets running productively.
Our extensive support contributes to improved employee wellbeing and retention through smooth, safe travel. By controlling all aspects of the process, from fares to change fees, we lower your overall costs. Our strong focus on duty of care and carbon management supports your organisation’s reputation and ESG commitments.
Your people are your greatest asset. We are committed to making sure they travel safely and efficiently. If you are looking to go beyond standard travel arrangements and achieve genuine strategic value, our team is ready to help.
