By Tim Aldred

29 Jun 2022

Leyland-based travel group dnata has begun a recruitment drive to fill 120 positions across its UK operations.

The company owns Travel Republic, Travelbag, Netflights, Sunmaster Gold Medal and is seeing an increase in demand for its range of travel products and services..

The vacancies range from marketing, finance and IT, through to customer service and contact centre roles. They will supplement nearly 160 roles already filled since the start of the year.

The role will largely be based in Leyland and Kingston-upon-Thames in Surrey, with opportunities also available at its other hubs located at Chester and across its network of Travelbag high street travel stores, as well as hybrid and home working positions.

Ailsa Pollard, chief executive officer – UK & Europe, dnata Travel Group (UK), said: “Like many travel companies, we’re seeing demand for our holidays pick up. This means we need to increase the size of our team – especially in the critical customer service and sales areas – to ensure we’re able to maximise that interest.

"This is our biggest single recruitment push ever, and we want to fill as many of the available roles as quickly as we can with energetic people who share our own passion for travel, and our vision to reconnect a better world."
