We believe travel can change how people feel, connect and cope, yet many of the families who could benefit most from a break are the least able to access one. Through our Giving Back Fund, we commit 5% of adjusted profit after tax each year to support organisations in our branch countries and destinations that help families get a break and strengthen the communities that host our customers. Since making this commitment, Inside Travel Group has donated over £250,000 to charities and causes, and this will be the Foundation’s main source of income at launch. The fund has supported charity partners in the UK, US, Australia and Japan providing short breaks for families who need them most, non-profit hospitality training schools in Cambodia, and funding relief efforts for disasters and emergencies that occur in our branch countries and destinations. We celebrate the different cultures, perspectives, lifestyles, and experiences that shape our team, and we welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and communities. How to apply: We will be reviewing and interviewing candidates on a rolling basis, so we encourage you to submit your application as soon as possible. Due to the high volume of applications, we may close the application process before the stated deadline if we receive enough qualified candidates. Please note that you’ll need to be UK-based for governance and set-up purposes and able to act as a trustee of a UK charity. Closing Date: 7th July 2026
