Emirates targets UK with cabin crew recruitment drive

Emirates is to hold 17 cabin crew recruitment open days across the UK this month, with dozens more planned throughout the year.

The Dubai-based airline is seeking to fill thousands of positions as it responds to sustained demand for international travel.

Open days are planned in January across London, Manchester, Leeds, Oxford, Gatwick, Nottingham, Newcastle, Guildford, Glasgow, Birmingham, York, Liverpool, Milton Keynes, Edinburgh and Luton.

Crew will be based in Dubai with an employment package including a tax-free salary and concessional travel benefits, including for friends and family.

Other benefits include free company-provided accommodation, free transport to and from work, medical cover as well as exclusive discounts on shopping and leisure activities in Dubai.

UK divisional vice president Richard Jewsbury said: “Demand for Emirates’ world-class service and expanding global network has continued to grow and finding the best crew from the UK is a key priority. 

“We’re looking for people from a range of backgrounds and sectors with transferable skills like multi-tasking, communication, interpersonal skills and problem-solving. 

“If you want to travel the world earning a tax-free salary with some incredible benefits, open days give you the chance to meet our colleagues and kick off a sky-high career.”
