ABOUT FLASH PACK
Friendship profoundly improves our emotional well being, sense of belonging, purpose and levels of happiness. Everyone wants more human connection but making new friends is really hard. That’s why Flash Pack is on a mission to create 1 million meaningful friendships across the globe, using the power of travel and technology.
Pre COVID, we enjoyed triple-digit growth, wall-to-wall press coverage and an elated reception from our previously underserved, international customer base. We invite you to be part of the next steps in our exciting journey.

OUR VALUES
CUSTOMER, TEAM, SELF
You seek what is best for Flash Pack before yourself or your group. Service is the foundation on which this business is built and we believe a culture that fosters non-ego, servant leadership is a truly differentiated advantage that can only be built on trust.
GROWTH MINDSET
We compete in a hyper-competitive industry where benchmarking against competitors is the norm. We’re looking for people who want to set the benchmark rather than celebrate incremental improvements over the competition.
SIMPLIFY, FOCUS, EXECUTE
We value simplicity over complexity. We strive to ruthlessly prioritise. We say no to many things so we can focus on the things that are truly meaningful to us. Bias-to-action and avoid analysis-paralysis. Focus on great results rather than on process.
HUMILITY
No A’holes please, this includes staff and customers. We bring together exceptional individuals but we optimise for the best team outcome. There is no individual bigger than the team and we don’t tolerate egotistical or selfish behaviour. Be self-critical, welcome feedback, continuously experiment and seek perspectives and solutions from outside the company.
EMBRACE THE ADVENTURE
To us this means embracing challenges, use feedback and learn from failures and mistakes rather than dwell on them. Be a curious and a continuous learner, focus on bettering oneself and your team rather than protecting oneself.
WHO WE’RE LOOKING FOR
We look for people who share our values and can add to our culture. Our Culture is centred around high performance, high conviction and humility. We value teamwork over grandiosity, great questions over corporate euphemisms and autonomy over conformity. We care deeply about surrounding ourselves with ambitious, exceptional but humble individuals and believe that our culture is our greatest advantage against our competitors as well as thriving as the industry changes.
Perks & Benefits
Remote First
We are a performance driven culture and we genuinely don’t care where you work from as long as you can attend key meetings and make yourself available during UK office hours.
No Red Tape
We’re not interested in hierarchy and we don’t believe in closed doors. We’re a start-up culture at heart and if you have an idea, we want to hear it – even if it’s beyond your job spec.
Pension Scheme
We offer a generous pension scheme contributing up to 5% for all employees.
Flexibility
Generous maternity and paternity leave, private healthcare, gym membership or the opportunity to travel – you choose. We understand there isn’t a one size fits all package.
Do your best work
Benefits and perks don’t mean anything unless you genuinely enjoy your work. We are working hard to ensure every employee feels stimulated, fulfilled and happy in their role.
