Barrière is opening its doors to budding talent in preparation for the summer season, and all of its divisions are involved in this major recruitment drive: Hospitality, Restaurants, Casinos, Leisure & Well-Being, for positions such as commis chefs, head waiters, station chefs, croupiers, housekeeping staff, receptionists, spa therapists and many others.
Induction programme and tailor-made training
The new seasonal recruits will embark on the «Campus Barrière» training programme, launched by the group in 2019 to help employees familiarise themselves with the values and professions that Barrière has become famous for over the past 111 years.
All potential candidates are welcome to apply, whether they are experienced or just starting out. The most important elements are motivation, versatility, social skills, and a desire to work in the service industry.
Successful candidates will receive professional training from our Campus Barrière coaches.
At the end of the induction programme and training sessions, which will take place on site, Barrière’s new summer recruits will join the teams to share the values and passion that ensure Barrière’s guests experience the exceptional, whilst discovering French art of living.
Barrière pulls out all the stops for seasonal workers
As part of its Human Resources policy, Barrière works on behalf of its permanent and seasonal employees every day, coming up with concrete solutions to improve their working conditions and salaries.
To cope with the shortage of seasonal accommodation, the group provides its own accommodation in a number of its destinations. In addition, a co-optation bonus is paid to employees who refer successful candidates, and a loyalty bonus is awarded to seasonal workers who come back from one year to the next.
Depending on the local management in place, seasonal workers also enjoy many advantages, including reductions with local businesses, such as restaurants, bars and other leisure facilities, or activities organised throughout the season, including sports sessions with a coach, and evening events at the start and end of season.
For André Decoutère, Group Human Resources Director, «We are delighted to start preparing for a new summer season, which looks set to be as busy and exciting as ever! For us, it’s important to find new talents, to go out and meet them, and to guide them on their journey to acquire the new skills and expertise required. It’s all about adopting the right gestures and the right attitude to ensure our guests experience the same quality of service in all our establishments. And if our seasonal employees achieve this whilst enjoying the best working conditions possible, then we will have achieved our goal. »
