Embracing the En Route Spirit

At En Route, we’re more than just a team, we’re a community. Whilst we take great pride in our work and the value we bring to our customers, it’s our vibrant culture that sets us apart. From delicious Food Truck Fridays to adventurous Tough Mudders, our non-work activities foster connections, camaraderie, and a strong sense of belonging.
Referral Scheme: Growing Our Community

At En Route, we know that great people know great people. That’s why our referral scheme is so important to us. We encourage our team to refer talented individuals who would be a great fit for our culture. If your referral is hired and passes probation, you’re rewarded with flight vouchers, and we get to welcome another incredible person into the En Route team. It’s a win-win that helps us grow the business while maintaining the values that make En Route such a special place to work.

OnHand: Volunteering Made Easy

Giving back to the community is important to us at En Route, and our partnership with OnHand makes it easier than ever. OnHand connects our team with local volunteering opportunities, allowing us to make a positive impact in ways that are meaningful to each of us. Whether it’s delivering groceries to those in need, helping out at local shelters, or mentoring young people, OnHand helps us turn our personal values into action. It’s not just about what we do in the office; it’s about how we contribute to the world around us.


The En Route Volunteer Scheme

Our commitment to community doesn’t stop with OnHand. The En Route Volunteer Scheme encourages everyone on the team to dedicate time to causes they’re passionate about. We offer paid volunteer days, allowing our employees to step away from their desks and into the community, lending their time and skills to those who need it most. It’s another way we ensure that our work has a purpose beyond the office walls. 

Tough Mudder and Team Spirit

For those who love a challenge, (or are persuaded by our Research and Insights Manager Michaela Gatt-Floridia) En Route’s participation in events like Tough Mudder has become a part of our culture. These activities aren’t just about pushing personal limits- they’re about building bonds. Whether you’re slogging through the mud or jet skiing on a beautiful lake, these experiences create unforgettable memories and a sense of camaraderie that carries over into our daily work life. It’s about supporting each other, celebrating our collective courage, and having a blast along the way.

Yearly Charity Donations: Giving Back Together

At En Route, we believe in giving back, and our yearly charity donations are a testament to this commitment. Each year, in addition to supporting local foodbanks and other great causes, we make four donations of £500 to charities that are close to our colleagues’ hearts. What makes this initiative truly special is that the charities are nominated by our team members, ensuring that the causes we support are ones that resonate deeply with our community. It’s a collective effort that amplifies our impact, allowing us to contribute to the well-being of diverse groups and organisations.

 

Thirsty Thursdays: Unwinding and Connecting

When the workweek is winding down, there’s no better way to relax than with Thirsty Thursdays. This monthly tradition gives us all a chance to unwind, share a drink, and connect on a personal level. Whether you’re into craft beers, fine wines, or a simple lemonade, Thirsty Thursdays are all about enjoying each other’s company in a laid-back setting. It’s an informal way to build relationships, find out more about each other away from the office, and just have a laugh!

 

Food Truck Fridays

There’s something special about gathering with colleagues at the end of a productive month, and at En Route, we’ve made it a tradition with Food Truck Fridays. On the last Friday of each month, a nominated food truck rolls up to our office, offering a delightful variety of culinary treats, such as burgers, samosas, paella, ice cream and more. It’s more than just grabbing a bite to eat; it’s a communal experience that adds flavour to our week. We’re all foodies here, so this is the perfect way to kick off the weekend.

Looking Forward: More Than Just a Workplace

The culture at En Route isn’t just about what we do; it’s about who we are. It’s the food truck, the charity donations, the thrill-seeking adventures, and the everyday moments that make our team feel like a family. As we look ahead, we’re excited to continue building on these traditions, creating new experiences, and strengthening the bonds that make En Route more than just a workplace — it’s a place where we all belong.

So, whether you’re a longtime member of the team or just starting your journey with us, there’s always something to look forward to at En Route.
