The Influencers: Ross Steele

A win for us all

It has been great to hear the stories of local businesses beginning to notice positive effects to trade, as a result of the centre being operational.

We’re thrilled to finally be playing our part in the regeneration of the city.

For the remainder of the year – in fact until this time next year – the calendar is looking full, meaning the benefits will continue to flow for local businesses.

But with a full event calendar, comes the need for staff to service those events.

While we have a fantastic team of casual, part-time and permanent staff, business has bounced back stronger than expected, so we are looking to employ more people ahead of schedule.

Like many in our industry, we have not been immune to the recruitment challenges currently facing the hospitality and events sector. With many of those with hospitality experience leaving the industry during Covid-19, the challenge now is to recruit new talent.

As part of the ASM Global family, we are fortunate to be able to offer international job and career opportunities for staff through our worldwide network, and we hope this will entice those who have been thinking about the hospitality sector to give it, and us, a go.

We are out in market for several roles now, with more to follow. If you, or someone you know have ever considered a move into events or hospitality, be it for a casual role or a career, now is the time to get in touch.
