... As told by a few team members at Fora HQ
Work with us
Hi, we’re Fora. We're a team of entrepreneurs and technologists building something new – with travel advisors, creators and enthusiasts at the center.
If you're passionate about travel and building something that will change the industry from the ground up, we'd love to hear from you.
See open HQ roles here. Or, if you’re interested in a flexible career as a travel advisor, sign up to become a Fora Advisor.
Who we are
Fora was founded in 2021 by three travel entrepreneurs – Henley Vazquez, Jake Peters and Evan Frank – who shared one big idea. Since then, we’ve grown to a team of 25+ full-time employees, with an office headquarters in TriBeCa, New York City.
Fora HQ is a proudly diverse, multitalented and dynamic team. Among us are parents and dog parents, lifelong Brooklynites, passionate oenophiles, musicians and fantasy football junkies. We’re united by our shared love of travel – of course – as well as our commitment to sustainability and inclusivity in the industry. (That, and shared our love for high-end hotels, old-fashioned road trips and searching for the best local food specialties wherever we go.)
What we do
We’re reimagining the travel advisor industry with fresh eyes, and building a travel agency that is modern, inclusive, tech-enabled and well, cool.
Our mission is bold. We’re here to empower 100,000 entrepreneurs to transform their passion for travel into revenue, and we’re doing it by curating the most incredible experiences for travelers.
Work with us
We’re looking for talented, out-of-the-box thinkers who are ready to shake up the travel industry with us. Are you mission-driven? Entrepreneurial? Obsessed with building things? All of the above? We'd love to hear from you.

Yossi Eliyahu
VP of Engineering
“Fora has all the hallmarks of a scrappy, high-growth startup. But what I like most about my job is the camaraderie that comes from working at such a mission-driven company. Sure, everyone here loves travel, but we’re bonded by something bigger: we’re moving the industry forward together. This sense of purpose really feeds into the company culture.”
Blair West
Editorial Manager
“Not only is the team awesome, but Fora’s leadership team really trusts its employees to make meaningful contributions – everyone’s voice is heard, which makes a world of difference in the day-to-day. It was a big step to transitioning back into office life post-pandemic, but the energy and support has made it a seamless and positive experience.”
