The UK travel and hospitality tech market

Many of the travel and hospitality technology companies we work with are based in the UK, from online travel and travel management businesses to hotel software, restaurant technology and payments. London holds the largest concentration of employers and candidates, with strong clusters elsewhere and many roles now hybrid or remote.

We recruit across travel tech and hospitality tech, for sales, customer success, engineering and product and leadership roles.

What to plan for when hiring in the UK

A few practical points shape UK hiring timelines and offers:

  • Notice periods of one to three months are common, and longer for senior people, so start dates are often well after the offer.
  • Senior commercial contracts frequently include restrictive covenants that need checking before an offer.
  • Contractor engagements need an IR35 status decision from the hiring company.
  • Hybrid working is the norm for many technology roles; agree the office expectation before the search starts.

UK salaries

Our salary guide publishes UK base salary bands in pounds for technical and commercial roles in travel and hospitality technology, alongside US bands, with the sources for each. UK bands are London-weighted, so roles elsewhere in the country may sit lower.

How we run a UK search

Every search runs on our eight-stage process with one named recruiter from brief to start date. Across our engagements the average from briefing call to accepted offer is 33 days on a contingent search, 26 on an exclusive Partner search and 19 with a Dedicated team (how the tiers compare).
