TUI is recruiting 1,500 new staff ahead of the summer holiday season with 1,000 roles overseas. It is looking to take on resort staff in destinations including Antalya, Crete, Majorca and Rhodes - and some jobs are open to Brits despite post-Brexit jobs rules.
The group, which runs the UK's largest tour operator, will invite applications from the UK and Ireland as well as Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands. It is searching for tour guides, childcare experts, fitness trainers and employees for the entertainment areas of its own hotels and clubs.
Some of these positions are filled directly in destinations, but employees are also recruited in the home countries of TUI holidaymakers. The travel firm covers the costs of local accommodation, travel to and from the destination as well as necessary visas and work permits. The first new employees are due to start as early as this month.
Meanwhile, TUI is recruiting for various specialised roles, such as software engineers, data engineers, technical analysts and digital analysts. The majority of the jobs on offer can be taken up anywhere in Europe, regardless of where the future team is based.
Flexible and hybrid working are now common practice with teams working together virtually across borders. With the TUI Workwide programme, employees can work from anywhere in the world for up to 30 working days a year – and extend their holiday locally with a workation.
Sybille Reiss, executive board member of TUI Group responsible for HR, said: ""TUI has continued to invest in the digitalisation of its own processes and products during the pandemic.
"We expect summer 2022 bookings to return close to normalised summer 2019 levels and are now expanding our teams in the areas of digitalisation and destinations to continue writing our success story after two years of the pandemic. After all, it is our colleagues who make us one of the leading tourism companies in the world."
