Company story
ForwardKeys is an innovative travel analytics company. It was established in 2010 when the founders realised that the air reservation data used by airlines could serve every industry with an interest in global travellers. Since then, we have built several online platforms through which our clients monitor and qualify traveller flows, map global demand and forecast travel trends. Our team now comprises over 100 people and continues to grow – and we are always looking to develop new datasets and products to help our clients understand the travel landscape.
Company culture
The working environment at ForwardKeys is international, challenging and flexible:
International because our employees come (and work) from all around the world, just like our clients.
Challenging is making the transition from a start-up to a bigger company, and everything that entails – from developing and selling new products to seeking and seizing new opportunities.
Flexible means we understand that doing your job well is more important than being in the office from 9 to 6. To ensure everyone is working towards the same goals, we have biannual company weeks during which we make sure to have fun.
Committed with equality
At Forwardkeys, equality is part of our DNA. We are committed to maintaining an inclusive and diverse workplace where all individuals are valued and respected. Employment decisions are made based on job-related criteria; regardless of sex, race, age, religion, disability, sexual orientation, or any other characteristic protected by law. We expressly reject any form of discrimination or harassment and encourage all employees to uphold our values of respect, fairness, and inclusivity.
The job location
You will have the possibility to partially work remotely from your most convenient location. Nevertheless, your presence in our Headquarters in Valencia, Spain will be linked to specific purposes, what we call “Key moments that matter.” At times when it is valuable to bring people together, impacting the commitment, stickiness, productivity, and desired outcomes.
