Intrepid Colombo, part of global travel brand Intrepid Travel, has been named on the prestigious ‘50 Best Places to Work’ list by independent analysts at Great Place to Work in Sri Lanka.
This recognition is based on confidential survey data assessing employee experiences of trust, innovation by all, meaningful organization values and leadership effectiveness.
Intrepid Travel is a global tour operator, providing sustainable experience-rich travel on all seven continents. The business was established in Melbourne, Australia in 1989 and has experienced global growth over the past 34 years.
This accolade comes just over one year after Intrepid Colombo received its Great Place to Work certification in 2022 and recognises the company’s success in creating a diverse, equitable and inclusive work environment. The company has also been certified as Best Place to Work for Women, in recognition of its initiatives to support women in the workplace. The majority of Intrepid’s senior leadership team in Colombo comprises female managers.
“Being named as a top workplace in Sri Lanka is testament to our team’s work to create a welcoming, dynamic and supportive workplace. This would not be possible without the incredible people we have working with us in Colombo and the support of our global team,” says Poornaka Delpachitra, Country General Manager of Intrepid Colombo.
“I am incredibly proud of every team member and we are excited to continue to grow our office, as well as bring more customers to Sri Lanka to experience everything our country has to offer.”
Intrepid Colombo was started back in October 2012 to provide IT development services to Intrepid. Since then, it has grown fast into a leading centre of excellence, supporting the global business with IT development and support, as well as supporting a range of other functions including finance, HR and customer service. The company also runs a successful travel and tourism business in Colombo, welcoming customers from all over the world on its small-group travel adventures.
