UK: A range of permanent, full time and part time positions have been created across the Inn Collection Group’s portfolio in Northumberland, the Lake District, Yorkshire, Wearside and County Durham.
The announcement comes ahead of the 17 May reopening date as per the government’s recovery roadmap.
Positions range from front-of-house to kitchen and housekeeping. The roles offered form part of the group’s INNtelligent recruitment initiative, which supports flexible working opportunities, above average wages, free online training and employee benefits.
Catherine Bellhouse has been appointed as recruitment manager to lead the hiring process. She previously launched the group’s Commissioners Quay Inn at Blyth as general manager. Bellhouse said: “I am delighted to be returning to The Inn Collection Group for such a brilliant new role. It’s a great time to be working with a company that is not only dynamic and growing, but one that is so committed in its people and invests in them. I’m really excited to use my years as a hospitality operator to support the group as they grow and to bringing great people into the company. I have always felt aligned to The Inn Collection Group’s core values and now I am back – it feels like I have never been away.”
Managing director of The Inn Collection Group, Sean Donkin, added: “We are delighted to be in a position where we can open up such a great number of permanent jobs across our sites. The hospitality industry has been one of the hardest hit by the pandemic, so it’s fantastic to be shouting about good news in the sector with the news that we are creating 200 jobs.
He continued: “There’s a myth that working in hospitality means long, unsociable hours and low rates of pay. We believe in flexibility with wide-ranging, pivotal career opportunities and overturning the one-size fits all approach. We have team members who work day shifts to fit with family commitments whereas other people prefer the buzz and energy of weekend or evening hours. It’s all about working together to find the best solutions for everyone.”
