What is Public Sector recruitment at Love Recruitment?

We recruit for several of the large and smaller public sector and leisure management businesses in our sector.

We also support with several hospitality roles within our leisure lane.

The broad scope of this sector means that there are a huge number of different opportunities from fitness based, to operations from maintenance to hospitality.

Leisure is a sector that has a huge amount of transferrable skills from other operations, for example someone could move from running busy F&B operations to running a leisure venue.

Why Leisure?

This is not a 9-5pm Monday - Friday environment, but also means you can often travel at more typically quiet times, or on cheaper fares as you're avoiding the stereotypical "office hours".

A high level of responsibility - within leisure and tourism you'll be responsible for ensuring that customers get their money's worth. As I said, you can really make a memory that lasts a lifetime, you'll need to be quick thinking and operationally savvy.

Progression - in the leisure sector this can be quick.

Job satisfaction - helping people to enjoy their free time, reach their fitness potential and travel the world can be incredibly rewarding.

Flexibility - depending on the industry, employees can be hired on seasonal contracts. Opportunities for part-time work and career breaks are also often available. It takes a wide variety of people with varied flexibility to make this industry work. This makes it a great industry to "learn your craft".
