PPC Manager

Want to work with an award-winning and quickly expanding company. We are a travel site making it a doddle to book camping, glamping and caravan sites all over the world with over 6000 to choose from.

We receive 40m annual visits and up to 9173 bookings per day – so far we’ve booked 500m worth of holidays helping more than 17m holidaymakers make their great escape.

Over the last two years we’ve launched new desktop and mobile websites with an updated look and feel, led a successful campaign to change the law to open more campsites in the UK and adapted our search to give disabled travellers the information they need. And with a fifth of our business coming from outside the UK already, we’re just getting going.

You’ll join a nimble team of 70 based in 10 countries: we’re a 100% remote business so we all work from home, getting together from time to time when we can. The company is profitable and was founded in 2009 by former staff with a background in the holiday park sector.
