Building on the success of the 2024 recruitment drive, which saw almost 20% of attendees recruited, Fairmont Singapore and Swissôtel The Stamford are inviting jobseekers to another on-property career fair designed to inspire and reignite passion for the hospitality industry. This event will be held at SKAI Suites on the 69th Floor of Swissôtel The Stamford, on 14th and 15th January from 10am to 7pm each day.
Mr William J. Haandrikman, Managing Director of Fairmont Singapore and Swissôtel The Stamford, shared, “Our last recruitment drive demonstrated the incredible potential and enthusiasm within Singapore’s workforce. We’re thrilled to host this second event to continue showcasing the meaningful opportunities hospitality offers. Hospitality is more than a profession; it’s a chance to create lasting memories for guests while building rewarding careers. As Accor’s Employee Value Proposition aptly puts it, ‘Hospitality is a Work of Heart.’ We’re committed to renewing a sense of enchantment in the sector and welcoming more talent into our growing family.”
Diverse Opportunities
At the recruitment drive, over 80 full-time and contract positions will be available across 18 departments, including Culinary, Housekeeping, Spa, Front Office, Stewarding, Sales, Marketing and Security.
