We help holidaymakers love their journeys

We’re the first tech platform for flight-free holidays, and we’re on a mission to make slow travel mainstream. We help people experience the joy of journeying through lesser-known parts of the UK and Europe by train, boat and bus, and are proud to be a certified B Corporation. Founded in March 2020, we’ve raised £2.3M in government grant funding and from angel investors and regularly appear in mainstream press from the Times to the Guardian. We’ve sold over 1,000 trips, are growing 7x year on year, and have 97% five star reviews.

• Excellent verbal and written communication skills, and a positive approach to interactions with our team and customers

• Proficiency working with spreadsheets (Google Sheets/Excel) and comfort populating and organising data sets

• An enthusiastic ‘can-do’ attitude and an agile approach

• Customer service experience and/or operations experience in a high growth start-up or small team

What would be great (but isn’t required)

• Fluency/proficiency in French, Italian, Spanish and/or German

What we offer
