Description :

 When it comes to innovation and achievement there are few organisations with a better track record than us. Over the last 23 years, we have changed the way people travel, leading the way in the short haul airline market across the UK and Europe. With a growing fleet of over 300 aircraft, annual passenger numbers in excess of 85 million and an unparalleled network of over 1,000 routes, our aim it to make travel easy and affordable for our customers.  Then it’s our people and passion which set us apart. Highly talented, forward thinking people with a real sense of fun.  We are generation easyJet, joined together by our “Orange Spirit”.

EasyJet Holidays was initially launched in 2011 and has since the start been provided millions of easyJet customers with hotels and destination services across Europe. However, investment to date has been limited and following a strategic review that has revealed significant opportunities easyJet has now decided to set up a separate business unit within the group to capture these and expand our footprint within the European holidays market. We’re building an industry leading team of experts who will develop a separate business that is agile, innovative, energetic and will disrupt the holiday market! We’re an ambitious bunch and have big plans ahead but we’re on the lookout for some additional hands.
