Huge Manchester Airport recruitment drive sees 1,000's of jobs available
Bosses at the airport say demand for some flights this year could out-strip pre-pandemic levels
Thousands of jobs are being made available at Manchester Airport ahead of what bosses there say could be a bumper year for foreign holidays.
Over 550 roles directly with the airport and 1,000 more with those such as airlines, retailers and cleaning companies are being recruited for.
It's as the airport prepares for what they hope will be a busy year with passengers looking to get away as travel restrictions ease again.
Karen Smart, Manchester Airport Managing Director, said:
“It’s great that our passengers have more freedom to fly, as the aviation industry begins its road to recovery.
"We always knew the sector would quickly bounce back with the easing of travel restrictions, which were relaxed this weekend.
“This means we now have hundreds of fantastic, interesting roles available to suit a wide range of people with different experience, skills and backgrounds.
"We encourage applications from individuals with great people skills, ambition and enthusiasm.
“Airports are a great, varied place to work that are interesting and offer excellent potential. Our colleagues get huge job satisfaction from interacting with customers and helping to give them a great start to their holidays.
“This is a great opportunity to grow your career and join our friendly team at the vibrant and busy Manchester Airport.”
