About Us

Founded in 2015 in Athens, Greece, Welcome redefines the way people travel by going above and beyond the commoditized transfer service and being the first company to deliver a complete, personalized, in-destination travel experience. From the moment a traveler arrives at a new destination, until their return journey home, Welcome accommodates all their travel needs, including transfers, sightseeing trips, and local information, in the easiest, friendliest, and most personalized way possible. Welcome's drivers are experts in the area and share their local know-how to make travelers feel at home wherever they are. The company has also introduced contactless rides, thorough cleaning protocols, and protective equipment to make every journey safe.

Welcome has safely transported over 3 million travelers in more than 75 destinations around the world, including 1 million travelers in 2019 alone. 97% of those who travel with Welcome have rated its service as “Excellent”, making Welcome Pickups the new standard for in-destination travel services.

The Team

We are a group of vibrant erse people who love traveling and never settle on quality. Each one of us didn’t join Welcome by chance, and believes deeply in what Welcome is trying to achieve, so we work relentlessly to make that happen. We challenge common logic, focus on design, put simplicity and usability first, and create memorable experiences. We keep learning and exploring better ways to serve our community and grow personally and professionally in our respective fields. We stay humble along the way, with a “pay it forward” mentality, but with big and bold goals.

Who we're looking for

  • Explaining to users what the product is and how it works
  • Making the user experience effortless
  • Contributing to the creation of our distinct visual language
  • Helping to bring our developing design system to life
  • Helping the company to make more money

Good things about us

  • Our products are not so bad or old that you hate them 😎 , but not so good yet that you have nothing to contribute
  • The team has a perfect size: we're small enough to have minimum bureaucracy and corporate nonsense, but big enough to enable every person to do what they are best at and make a difference doing so
  • Our development team is really powerful, motivated, and can do virtually anything
  • The production cycle is fairly short: you start seeing your work in production really quick
