Amazing people

We realise that our people make us what we are. Here, you will have the opportunity to work with and learn from the best and feel inspired every day.

Flexible working

It’s really important to us that you get the balance right between your work and personal lives. We have a number of flexible working options available, from home working to flexible hours, so you don’t have to miss out on the things that are important to you.

Constantly learning

Our grounds aren’t called the Holiday Extras Campus for nothing. We believe that every day at work should be one where you develop yourself. Whether it’s trying out a different code, networking with our partners or pushing yourself to try something new, you’ll never stop learning!

Tonnes of benefits

Everyone’s needs are different, so we have something for everyone. Simple.

Latest technology

To do the best work, you need the best tools. That’s why we only use the latest Apple Macs and iPhones. We use the latest technology to code our websites and make those additional extras hassle-free for every customer.

Loads of fun!

We believe work should be fun and you should be able to have a good laugh. Every day!

HX Amenities

Chill-out areas and games

Every self-respecting workplace needs a chill-out space where you can take time out to unwind.

Consider yourself a Wii champion or pool shark? Get some competition going on and have a play in our chill-out zone, it’s a great way to break up the day and clear your mind.

Deck chairs and picnic tables

Take advantage of those sunny days! Why not have your meeting, your lunch or just a chat while enjoying some fresh air in our grounds.

Free parking and bike shed

We know parking can be expensive and a real headache when you can’t find a spot. There is more than enough free parking space in our grounds for everybody, as well as a secure bike shed if you prefer to ride in.

Free tea and coffee

It’s an essential. Some of us can’t live without it!
So if you want it, just go and get it.

HX Wellbeing

Massages

We could all do with less stress in our lives, so let us ease some of yours. We have massage therapists come in to give free shoulder and head massages. It’s a great way to ease those hard-working muscles.

Circuit training

Join one of our weekly classes. Great for fitness. It may hurt a little the day after, though!

Wellbeing weeks

We all need some downtime! These weeks aim to energise you at the beginning and end of winter and get rid of the seasonal blues. Free fruit, cereal bars, smoothies, yoga, relaxation classes, walks, massages, lunch buffets… the list goes on.

Discounted gym memberships

So you can feel happy and healthy, and a little more wealthy, we’ve got some great discounts with many gyms in Kent.

Birthday off

Your birthday is a special day. Happy Birthday from Holiday Extras, take the day off!

Sports fields and equipment

Have a game of football, volleyball or rounders – we’ve got all the equipment.

Conferences

Conferences are key to everyone’s development. We want to know what’s happening out there so we can stay ahead of the game. We attend conferences all over the country and overseas.

Buzz sessions

We all like to know what’s happening around the business, so fortnightly – sometimes more often – we have the opportunity to listen to what other teams are up to and how they are contributing to the success of the business. Great opportunities to catch up on where we are with our strategy and trading too. It feels good to be well informed.

Webinars

Don’t have time to trek to a conference far away? Check it out online.

Educationals

We send our guys off to the airports, so they get a real insight into the products we sell. Of course, it’s not all learning: there are plenty of opportunities to enjoy breakfasts, lunches, dinners and drinks laid on by our lovely hotels too.

Mentoring and coaching

Our learning isn’t just formal. Every day you’ll have the opportunity to learn from your expert team mates through mentoring and coaching.

Personal development plans

Your learning is always tailored to you. Each person has a personal development plan so that you can always achieve your best.

Monthly events

Every month, we make sure that we lay something on. We have movie nights, music quizzes, Easter-egg hunts, rounders, volleyball, “human” table football, school sports days, the I’m At Work – Get Me Out Of Here! challenge, fireworks nights, Christmas parties and more! It’s up to you how much you get involved.

Social club

Our social club runs regular events at hugely-discounted prices. Get your concert or festival tickets here or come on one of our trips to the theatre or the continent.

Parties

No one knows how to throw a party quite like Holiday Extras. You are guaranteed a great night!

Team nights out

Our social events don’t have to be at work. Go out with your team and have fun!

Charity fundraising events

It’s important to us that we give something back. We often hold fundraising events for national and local causes. Make a cake, come to work in your pyjamas or buy a raffle ticket to support the community.
