In Plymouth, the visitor economy employs just under 8% of people in the city, supporting 7,500 jobs. With more than 50 accommodation providers including hotels and independents, lots of restaurants, pubs and cafes, shops, cinemas and leisure companies, and a variety of job roles within each one, there is lots to choose from!
Plymouth’s visitor economy is worth over £300m to the city. If you want to find your fit and connect with opportunities for skills, training, education, careers and jobs in the visitor economy, Welcoming Plymouth can help. Our sector coordinator, Rhianne, has pulled everything together in one place, including links to some great jobs and training.
If there is anything that catches your eye, or you would like to find out more about Plymouth's visitor economy sector, please email welcomingplymouth@plymouth.gov.uk
