More Information
Worcestershire has a sizeable degree of opportunity in the sector of catering. In Worcestershire (its main towns being Worcester, Redditch and Bromsgrove, with a combined population of 280,000), one-fifth of the workforce is employed in hospitality and tourism. Large employers include Hilton, Best Western, and Premier Inn hotels.
In addition, every large employer in the area will employ catering staff, including those employed by the largest employer, the local authority (one quarter of all workers in Worcester work in the public sector). Employers need to be confident that they can find the best hospitality staff, so many managers in the catering industry employ the services of a specialist recruitment agency. A professional agency of this type will typically have years of proven experience in the area of the recruitment of skilled catering staff of all levels, and for all sorts of different types of contract (whether part-time, full-time, temporary, permanent or casual contracts). A specialist agency will be able to expertly choose the staff that are the most appropriate staff for a project. They can also often help ensure the smooth running of a specific project by participating in the management of the staff that they provide for the employer.
