Newcastle United job vacancies - Here's how to apply to work St James' Park
Saw this in the Chronicle, so I thought I'd post this on here, in case there is anybody on this board looking for a job XD
Would you like the opportunity to work at one of the country's best football grounds?
Now could be your chance as Newcastle United's St James' Park is currently recruiting for a range of roles. From chefs and kitchen porters, to stand and room managers - it's a great time to apply.
Over the course of last season Newcastle United recruited around 1,500 new staff, across its hospitality and retail departments. And due to the casual nature of the roles, it's perfect for people with other commitments.
Many people working at the stadium are students, or work with there as a second job. Newcastle United is also a real Living Wage employer for those over the age of 18, which means employees will receive Living Wage rates which are currently £10.90 per hour.
The team take great pride in our work, and were thrilled to win the ‘Matchday Hospitality Award – Overall’ award at the recent Stadium Events and Hospitality awards, beating off competition from the likes of Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool.
Outside of matchdays, there is further work available as the venue operates throughout the week, welcoming conferences, exhibitions, parties and celebration events and much more.
