Our teams
Dedicated people in varied roles
From hostel staff to business support, our dedicated people work in varied roles across YHA. If you’re someone who loves to be inspired by your surroundings, you’ve come to the right place.
At YHA, we often refer to our hostels as ‘the network’. It’s an apt word to describe the manor houses, mountain huts, Swiss-style chalets and 800-year-old castles that make up our unique collection of properties. Each one different, each with its own character, and each connected by a shared purpose; a drive to make travel and new experiences available to all.

National Office roles
Based in Matlock, Derbyshire, our National Office is the centre of operations. Many teams work remotely or in hybrid roles, while others are based in the office. You can discuss your preferences with your line manager.
Our locations
YHA’s hostel network is as vast as it is diverse, covering the length and breadth of England and Wales. Our properties can be found in picturesque coastal towns, clinging to steep mountain sides, in the heart of bustling city centres and scattered throughout the gorgeous British countryside. Even our national office is set in Matlock, Derbyshire, surrounded by stunning views of the Peak District.
Because where you go changes who you become.
Awards and memberships
YHA is a proud member of some great organisations and has won awards from many of them too.
