Overview Every great success story has to start somewhere. For Virgin Atlantic, it all began in 1984 with one rented jumbo jet making the flight from London Gatwick to Newark, New York. Today, we're the UK's second largest long haul airline, boasting one of the youngest fleets in the industry and flying to destinations all over the world. From Sydney to San Francisco, Boston to Cape Town, we've built an enviable reputation for the very highest standards of service in the skies. So, how did we travel so far in such a short space of time? The secret behind our success is a simple one: people. Talented and self-motivated people who share in our passion, drive, energy and commitment to providing only the very best. Together, we've created a fast-moving culture that thrives on inspirational leadership, positive attitudes and commercial flair. We're always looking for the next big idea. And because we're always ready to listen to our people and what they have to say, who knows, it could come from you. As far as the day-to-day is concerned, wherever you join us, you'll be totally focused on delivering the Virgin brand. This means the customer and their experience of travelling with us will always be front of mind. You'll need to take responsibility for your actions, use your initiative and be ready to support those around you. Friendly, yet always professional, ours is a unique business in which to work. And you'll help to keep it that way. So long as you're prepared to make the most of your talents, contribute some bright ideas - and have a great time while you're doing it - we'd love to hear from you. The bigger picture As well as the quality and commitment of our people, it's our reputation for service and innovation that really keeps us out in front. We've recently added Sydney, Havana and Mumbai to our ever-growing list of destinations and we have one of the most up-to-date fleets in the industry to get people there. And whether our customers are flying Upper Class, Premium Economy or Economy, they can look forward to the very latest innovations in in-flight comfort and entertainment - as well as the constant attention of our dedicated cabin crew. But this is only the start of the story. Whether they're working behind the scenes or 'front of house', every single one of our people has a contribution to make. Our teams of engineers work tirelessly to keep our fleet in tip-top condition. At head office, we have a range of dedicated professionals working on every side of the business from Marketing and Sales to Finance and IT. And all of this is in addition to our specialist cargo, in-flight and airport services teams who look after a bewildering array of extras that makes us the successful business we are. So whatever your talent, you can be sure we can find a home for it - and give it every opportunity to grow. Training and benefits We're committed to the development of our people. So we invest heavily in training and pride ourselves on our progressive and stimulating work environment. We work hard. And we love every minute of it. But when it comes to playtime, the rewards are there to help you enjoy life to the full. Up to seven free flights a year should be enough to satisfy the most extreme wanderlust. And with over 23 worldwide destinations, you'll probably be left wondering where to wander next! Our comprehensive benefits package also includes discretionary pension and private healthcare schemes.
