Question

My girlfriend is looking for a job in the travel industy and I don't really know where to start looking.

I have tried all the job websites that I have but they all revolve around my industry (IT) so don't help much.

Does anyone have any travel websites, advice or know of any jobs going in East-West Sussex. She is prepared to travel and we are only about 25 minutes drive from Gatwick.

She has BA training, ABTA certifications, and a whole pile of other qualifications that she achieved over 3 years at college.

Any help would be appreciated.

Many thanks
Darren

Just looking at your email over my boyfriend's shoulder...as you do
There is a great magazine called Wanderlust that I subscribe to, for independant travellers and they have loads of jobs advertised in the travel industry.
Go to www.wanderlust.co.uk and you will find a jobs page there.
Good Luck

Sounds obvious, but there are a lot of travel jobs on the JobCentre website.

Used to work for Airtours - dreadful industry to be in IMHO, but each to their own - the cheap hols are nice though

We used to have www.airtourscareers.co.uk, but not sure if it is still running. Worth a view.

darlodge,

FirstChoice have their HQ at Gatwick. They have had some jobs in the uk going on their site recently - depends what she wants to do, really.

Nothing much there at the moment, but it may be worth talking to them. I know most of their ecommerce team.

Cheers,
Steve
