Tourism Northern Ireland will deliver a dedicated campaign to change perceptions of working in our sector and attract and retain more great people.
People are the driving force behind our industry and we want to encourage more people to make a career in tourism and hospitality. But we need your help! Our industry have a powerful voice and we need to come together to shout about the vibrant, rewarding careers in our sector.
We have shared a campaign toolkit for tourism and hospitality employers and are asking you to use some of the creative assets on your social channels and share your upcoming vacancies.
You can view this information session to find out more about the Make it Here - Careers in Tourism & Hospitality campaign, and what it means for your business.
The Tourism & Hospitality industry is full of the same type of people - people who make your day. Some make five-star cuisine, others make mouth-watering cocktails, some make history come to life and others make sure the books are balanced at the end of the month. But, whatever your role and whatever your goal, in Tourism & Hospitality you can make someone’s day here – and make your career here too!
As part of the Make It Here campaign, a range of assets will be available for use by employers alongside your own activity.
The following websites provide useful supports, resources and advice to help employers better recruit and retain staff. Check out the range of Tourism & Hospitality courses at your local Further & Higher Educational college. You may want to offer your current team further training and development opportunities.
