Accountant

We are Stayforlong, and for us travel is not just a means to an end but a journey of extraordinary moments and remarkable discoveries.

As firm believers in the enriching power of prolonged stays, we are passionate about nurturing meaningful connections with the places our customers visit. We reward their commitment to the journey with progressively cheaper rates, encouraging them to immerse themselves in the very essence of each destination.

We were born in Barcelona out of the need to disrupt an industry dominated by big corporations dictating how we should travel.

Since 2015, our commitment has been to empower our customers to break free from the constraints of an oversaturated market. We strive to offer a fresh perspective, giving them, hoteliers, and our partners the flexibility, opportunities, and choices they deserve.

We strongly believe in equal opportunities for everyone, both in the workplace and beyond. We like to create spaces where everyone's ideas are equally valued and heard.

We are committed to inclusion, diversity, and work-life balance. We value a respectful work environment where all people are valued and respected regardless of race, color, ancestry, religion, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, age, citizenship, marital status, disability, gender identity, etc.

We started in a difficult business environment and have grown from there, which is why we admire nonconformists who fight against the odds, refuse to be intimidated, and help others along the way. With our digital DNA, we thrive on challenges, love to think outside the box, and move with the times.
