Disneyland Paris is on the hunt for UK staff for Christmas and next year’s summer seasons with recruitment drives in London and Birmingham.

A team of human resources professionals from Disneyland Paris will attend three different events around the UK to source around 100 positions from 28-31 October. The opportunities come in a variety of roles including guest services, sales, attractions and food & beverage.

The team first visited the ‘Signpost to Europe’event organised by European Employment Services (EURES), part of Jobcentre Plus which took place at Birmingham Town Hall on Wednesday 28 October.

At the event, which was free for visitors to attend, Disneyland Paris met with and interviewed potential recruits with an interest in working in Europe.

Yesterday, 29 October, the team relocated to Disney’s head office in Hammersmith, London, where they interviewed potential recruits who have applied previously via the website, www.disneylandparis-casting.com.

The final two days of recruiting in the UK are taking place at The Language Show at London Olympia, for which Disneyland Paris will join Jobcentre Plus on stand between Friday 30-Saturday 31 October.

With more than 14,000 employees, from 100 plus nations (countries or nationalities), Disneyland Paris offers opportunities in more than 500 vocations.

British employees represent a significant portion of professionals working for Disneyland Paris, with the third highest number of employees after France and Italy.

Earlier this year Disneyland Paris launched an online recruitment site to raise awareness of the diversity and breadth of employment opportunities. Potential candidates can sign up on the internet: www.disneylandparis-casting.com
