Center Parcs is hiring 1,500 new staff for its £250m holiday village at Woburn Forest in Bedfordshire.
The company, who run Warminster’s Longleat Forest, are seeking 500 housekeepers, 126 waiters, 53 spa therapists, 50 lifeguards, 19 nursery nurses and six nurses with other roles available.
The recruitment is expected to be completed by January next year with the site expected to open later in 2014.
Martin Dalby, chief executive of Center Parcs UK, said: "As the job market remains unsteady, I'm delighted that we are able to create such a large number of new jobs and offer people an exciting and rewarding career.”
Woburn Forest will be Center Parcs' fifth UK site and it will include 625 forest lodges, 75-bedroom hotel, a spa, sports facilities, restaurants and shops.
Tracey Purser, human resources manager for Center Parcs Woburn Forest, said: "We're looking for people who have the right attitude, strong personality, a passion for the leisure industry and perhaps, more importantly, take pride in their work."
