Airbnb is a global online marketplace for lodging, primarily homestays, and tourism experiences. Founded in 2008, the company has grown to over 4 million hosts and has facilitated over 1 billion guest arrivals worldwide, making it one of the largest travel technology platforms in the world. The company operates across more than 220 countries and regions, and its platform generates revenue by charging a service fee to both hosts and guests.

Company History

Airbnb was founded in 2008 by Brian Chesky, Joe Gebbia, and Nathan Blecharczyk in San Francisco, initially as a way to rent out air mattresses on their living room floor during a conference. The company grew rapidly, expanding to international markets within the first few years, and has since diversified into experiences and other travel-related services. Despite COVID-19 disruptions, Airbnb's platform has maintained a strong global presence and continues to be a major force in short-term rentals.

For International Professionals

  • Airbnb Spain's main office is located in Madrid, but the company also has a significant presence in Barcelona.
  • As a global company, Airbnb's work culture is English-first, and international experience is valued.
  • Airbnb offers remote work flexibility, and many roles are 'employee anywhere' or hybrid, allowing for location flexibility within certain countries.
  • Relocation or visa support may be provided for eligible roles, as Airbnb regularly hires internationally, but this depends on the role and level.
  • The roles in Spain are in specific functional areas like tax and revenue, which are less common but offer strong professional growth in a global tech environment.
