Jobseekers are being encouraged to register now for a jobs fair to recruitment hundreds of workers at Manchester Airport.

It comes as airport bosses told ManchesterWorld earlier this month about a surge in bookings as passenger confidence improves following the easing of Covid restrictions.

Cath Bailey, MAG’s Chief People Officer, said: “With travel restrictions having been eased, we are expecting customer demand to bounce back very quickly and are recruiting ahead of what we hope will be a busy summer.

“If you have strong people skills, are self-motivated and have the ambition to build an exciting career in aviation, an airport job could be perfect for you – it’s a place that offers endless variety, bags of opportunity and a brilliant team who’ll support you all the way.

“We held a virtual jobs fair in January which was very well-received and booked up fast, so we’d advise potential attendees to book a place for this event without delay to avoid disappointment.”
