There will be roles available in aviation, retail and more
There will be 1000 jobs available to apply for at Manchester Airport next month. On Thursday, November 7, the airport will host a jobs fair with hundreds of roles available in everything from airport security to hospitality.
Over 1,000 roles will be on offer at the free event, including around 250 with Manchester Airports Group (MAG), itself, which owns and operates Manchester Airport as well as East Midlands and London Stansted Airports. It will give visitors the opportunity to find out more about a career in aviation by speaking directly to more than a dozen employers based at the airport site.
Other employers who will be represented at the fair include airlines and aviation service providers, including Jet2.com, Dnata and Up & Away Aviation. There will be retail operators such as Pret a Manger, JD Sports and World Duty Free, as well as hotel groups including Doubletree Hilton and Holiday Inn/Ibis/Tribe Hotels. Construction firms working on the airport’s £1.3bn transformation programme, like MACE and NG Bailey, will also be present.

The Airport Academy, which is run in partnership by Manchester Airport and Trafford College, will be in attendance too at the jobs fair promoting its free pre-employment support programmes. These include fully accredited training schemes for those who are on jobseekers’ allowance and require additional support before applying for the jobs.
Charity Smartworks will have a stand promoting its ‘fashion as a force for good’ campaign. The organisation makes suits and formal attire available to women from disadvantaged backgrounds ahead of job interviews.
The jobs fair will take place at Wythenshawe Forum, a five minute drive away from the airport. Entry to the event must be booked in advance through Eventbrite via this link.
