Have you heard of TP Covilhã?

Whether your answer is yes or no, in this article we will let you know a little more about one of our favorite sites and the city of Covilhã!

In Portugal, TP has several locations, with more than 14,000 employees, all of them, with different characteristics and personalities, but always with two common elements: team spirit and unity.

TP Covilhã was born in 2008, when we started to build our first roots, and we immediately felt this familiar and welcoming atmosphere among our first employees.

If we had to highlight two benefits of working at TP Covilhã, we would present you with these two obvious factors:

1) A familiar and intimate work atmosphere

If you are looking for a workplace where a good work atmosphere is cultivated, then TP Covilhã is the right place for you! It stands out for fostering genuine connections while actively investing in the professional growth and career progression of every employee.

Here, motivation and unity are at the heart of everything we do, and throughout each year we bring our teams together with engaging group activities, celebrations and dynamic team-building experiences!

2) The city itself is already a plus!

Covilhã is located on the southern slope of Serra da Estrela, one of the most beautiful areas in Portugal. As the arm goes hand in hand with the Serra, the air seems different, lighter, purer and therefore more breathable.

Being an area embraced by nature, outdoor activities and sport are two allies of well-being! Covilhã is in a highly strategic area for those who like to spend their free time escaping the usual leisure programs.

The best part of living or working in Covilhã is, as it is a small city, the vast majority of trips are at a walking distance. Besides the natural beauty of the city and the surrounding mountains, you can visit historical landmarks and churches, such as São Martinho Chapel, the oldest building in the city, from the 12th Century. You can also find plenty of traditional restaurants where you can indulge in authentic local flavors, such as roast lamb, smoked sausages, and the iconic Serra da Estrela cheese, a true regional delicacy.

Just a short 25-minute drive from Covilhã, you’ll find the city of Fundão, known for its irresistibly sweet cherries. And for those craving adventure, you can head to Serra da Estrela and carve down the slopes on a skiing escape or soar above breathtaking landscapes with an unforgettable paragliding experience from the highest point in the mountain range.
