Inspiring Hospitality Careers 2024

Registration is now open

Register here for this unique Continuing Professional Development (CPD) event. It is designed to provide a platform for you to equip your students with insights, knowledge, and connections that will shape their future in the dynamic hospitality industry.

Continued Professional Development

We have designed the day in line with the Gatsby Benchmarks to equip you with the knowledge you need to better support your students as they look to their future career goals. Speakers from across the sector will be present to share their experiences on careers and labour market information. From executive hoteliers to event planning virtuosos, these luminaries will share their real-world experiences, industry trends, and success stories. .

You will have the privilege to interact with accomplished alumni who have harnessed their hospitality degrees to craft remarkable careers. They will share their further and higher education journey and the personal guidance that supported them on their journey.

Careers fair

We will also be hosting our annual Careers Fair on the same day. During the fair and over a networking lunch, you'll have the chance to engage directly with employers, industry leaders, and potential mentors showcasing the various career programmes to current students at the Edge Hotel School. You'll be able to see the varied career opportunities and what employers are looking for from their future team members.
