A multi award‑winning employer, recognised by Gallup as an Exceptional Workplace, we’ve grown from a pioneering idea over 65 years ago into a truly global organisation. Today, we generate over $38 billion in annual turnover, employ more than 90,000 people, operate a fleet of 2.4 million vehicles, and serve customers across 90+ countries, all while advancing the world one journey at a time.

The solutions in these areas are critical for the success and daily operations of our organization and our 90,000+ employees.
