Where you will be

 

Viator is a remote-first company, seeking to provide an environment of ultimate flexibility and trust within our teams but with regular access to one of our global hubs, in this case either our London, Oxford or Lisbon office. If you would like to work in the office, at home or as a hybrid between the 2 then Viator provides that flexibility.

 

Viator’s remote-first experience is centered around:

  • Intentionality and making our time together count. For some, this will mean traveling to be with colleagues on a regular basis. For some, it will mean being in the office for specific training, development, and growth. And for others, it will mean choosing to be in the office a couple times each week to foster connection.

  • Empowerment: Entrusting teams and individuals to work together to best harmonize the personal with the professional.

  • Diversity, and recognizing that our teams and employees have different needs – location, responsibility, hours worked, and collaboration levels. Different teams and different people will take different approaches. Some of our team members will be located remotely. Some will be near our offices.

  • Trust and focus on the quality of work above all.
