Mission Our Purpose: To open up the world for those who want to see
Description Flight Centre Travel Group (FCTG) is one of the world’s largest travel companies, employing 13,000 like-minded individuals – colloquially known as ‘Flighties’ – across 32 countries.
Our story dates to 1973, when our founder Graham Turner (aka “Skroo") and friend Geoff “Spy” Lomas buy a double-decker bus and take off on their first tour around Spain, Portugal and Morrocco, 3 years later forming the first business, Top Deck. After flight deregulations in the 80s our first retail "Flight Centre" stores opened in Australia in 1982, London in 1984, and New Zealand in 1987.
1987 was also the year we held our first “Global Gathering”, our infamous awards event celebrating our amazing people, a tradition that continues to this day.
We’re in our 40s now and a lot has changed! With global headquarters in Brisbane, Australia, our company owned leisure and corporate travel businesses span three major regions: APAC (Australia, New Zealand, and Asia), The Americas (USA, Canada, and Mexico), and EMEA (UK, South Africa, Ireland, Europe, and the UAE).
Our flagship corporate travel management brand, FCM, extends our reach even further through an impressive network covering over 100 countries via both company-owned operations and independent licensees.
With 30 unique brands across our global footprint the roles are just as diverse – from a Tavel Consultant to a Senior Machine Learning Scientist!
Together, we live and breathe our number one philosophy, Our People, and turn up each day driven by our purpose ‘To open up the world for those who want to see’. Put simply, we’re a bunch of travel lovers looking for more travel lovers to join our family.
Our values are simple, powerful and they shape our behaviour across our entire network of brands and businesses. We have a set of three core values (Ownership, Egalitarianism and Irreverence) that are lasting and unique to how we do things around here. They guide what our people do and drive our organisation forward.
We support our people the FCTG way; with opportunities to help you thrive, connect, give, move and be rewarded. Our people have access to a suite of tangible, curated benefits to ensure holistic wellbeing – from mental and physical health to financial freedom.
