Accommodation reservation service Booking.com expanding in Lithuania

The Lithuanian chapter of Booking.com was set up last June. According to the national registry, the company currently employs a staff of five people. However, the company is looking for at least two more employees.

Booking.com placed two ads on the LinkedIn network, advertising a Vilnius-based position for a project manager and another position for a hotel coordinator.

Booking.com originated from a start-up in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, that was set up in 1996. Ten years ago, the online hotel and hostel booking system was bought by US company Priceline. The deal was worth USD 135m.
