Holiday park operator Haven has announced a massive nationwide recruitment drive that will push 10,000 job opportunities throughout England, Scotland and Wales to support an increase in bookings for the year.
New full and part-time positions will be available at each of Haven’s 41 UK parks, which will be reopening to customers this month, in roles spanning activities and leisure, F&B, accommodation services, and security.
This latest recruitment drive aims to support the growing UK staycation market, with Haven seeing a 7% year-on-year increase in bookings for the 2024 season so far. An additional 200 pitches are also being introduced across Haven parks this year to meet rising demand.
Nola Ferguson, head of talent acquisition at Haven, said: “We’re thrilled to be re-opening in March with an array of innovative enhancements across our holiday parks. This exciting phase of growth presents a fantastic opportunity for talented individuals to become a part of our dynamic team.
“As we gear up for yet another busy season, we want to hear from applicants interested in contributing to the success of our award-winning team, whether that be in a seasonal role or those aspiring to build a lasting career with Haven.”
Since 2021, Haven has invested more than £400m into its parks, including over £170m in 2023. This investment has allowed Haven to offer a wider range of entertainment concepts and on-park experiences, including new activities and entertainment facilities such as adventure villages and show bars.
For 2024, Have is dedicating a £4m investment to expanding its food and beverage offering, including an exclusive agreement with J D Wetherspoon to operate at its parks.
