On the Beach

About the Company

!Hola!

We're On the Beach. There's over 500 of us, mostly at home, and sometimes in our office in Manchester.

We send nearly two million people on holiday every year (not together) and we're expecting to get to three million pretty sharpish. Why? Because we're the only holiday company who truly gets why going on your holidays is the best week or two of the year.

Better than birthdays. Better than Christmas. Better than the Monday after the Easter holidays, when the kids go back to school. It's a time when the rules are relaxed, caution is thrown to the wind, and life's simplest pleasures are truly indulged in. And because we get all of that, we work flipping hard to make our customers' holidays last even longer.

With our market-leading offers, scalable, flexible and innovative technology, strong customer-value proposition and low cost base, we're challenging existing players and redefining how customers book, manage and experience their holidays.

And it doesn't stop there. With huge opportunities for growth, we're on a long-term mission to become Europe's biggest and most loved online retailer of beach holidays, so our story's only really just begun...
