Career Transition
So you’ve never worked in the hospitality industry before but you’ve got working experience behind you?
That’s great!
Given the diversity of roles in hospitality, the skills and experience you have already gained
might be very valuable in a new role.

Hear how Robert used skills he developed as a motor mechanic to successfully transition into a very rewarding hotel career, coordinating driveway activities as a hotel doorman.
If you have previously worked in a retail environment, then roles involving guest services in hotels or customer facing roles in Food and Beverage might be perfect for you.
If you have managed teams before, then taking up initial roles that gain experience in hospitality, might see you move quickly to more senior roles.
If you have had previous experience in physical roles, then working in rooms or starting in bar work might suit you well.
If you have worked in back office roles such as Finance, HR/People and Culture, Technology or even in maintenance as a handyman, then your skills can definitely transition into the hospitality industry.
Whatever your prior career path, there could very well be a role for you in the hospitality industry.
