80 jobs on offer at Tynemouth Castle Inn

80 exciting job opportunities are up for grabs at the new Tynemouth Castle Inn ahead of it’s opening later this year.

Thanks to a partnership between The Inn Collection Group, North Tyneside Council’s Employment and Skills team and Newcastle United Foundation, anyone interested is invited to take part in a week-long employment programme which will end in guaranteed interviews for roles at the new pub.

The week will give potential candidates the opportunity to find out more about the company’s operations, visit another of their businesses in Blyth and take part in customer service workshops.

Roles available range from housekeeping and management to front of house and kitchen staff and those taking part will receive support with the application and interview process.

The Inn Collection Group are proud to stay true to their pub roots, creating inns where everyone would like to eat, drink, sleep and explore from. The people they employ are the key to the success and help them to ensure the customer is at the heart of everything.

Since launching the recruitment campaign, the teams have received more than 200 expressions of interest and are interested in hearing from anyone who’d like to work for the award-winning pubs with rooms company.

Cllr Steven Phillips, Cabinet Member for Inclusion, Employment and Skills at North Tyneside Council, said: “North Tyneside is a great place to work, and we’re delighted to be working alongside The Inn Collection Group and Newcastle United Foundation to provide these fantastic opportunities for local people.

“Our specialist Employment and Skills team are on hand to offer support and guidance to those interested in employment here and the pre-employment training week is a brilliant way to build your skills and confidence and find out more about what the roles will entail.

“We look forward to seeing the Tynemouth Castle Inn opening soon, it’s a great addition to an already fantastic offer along our coastline and it’s brilliant to welcome another successful company to North Tyneside.”

Jessica Dixon, Senior Employment and Apprenticeships Coordinator at Newcastle United Foundation, said: “We are proud to be supporting this fantastic opportunity alongside The Inn Collection Group and North Tyneside Council to connect our community with dozens of new roles available right on our doorstep.

“Through our Foundation’s employability support programme, NU Futures, we work every day with young adults taking their first steps into the world of work. It’s our deep understanding of our region’s employers that means we successfully equip candidates with the skills, knowledge and confidence they need to secure their desired roles.

“With interviews guaranteed at the end of our employment week, we know this programme will be popular and would encourage anyone interested to sign up to this amazing opportunity as soon as possible.”

The Tynemouth Castle Inn is based on the stunning Tynemouth coast and is set to create local jobs and improve costal amenities in North Tyneside.
