The great thing about a seasonal job with YHA is the sheer variety that the role offers. You’ll get involved in all aspects of running the hostel, learning plenty of new skills and different approaches, including:
Don’t worry if you’ve never worked a season with YHA before, or if you’re unfamiliar with one or more of these tasks. You’ll come along to an induction day to get to grips with your new role and to get settled in. We’ll take you through everything, from housekeeping to safeguarding.
YHA has over 150 unique properties spread throughout England and Wales’ most iconic and inspiring places. A seasonal job could see you behind a bar 20 metres from the shore of Lake Windermere, looking after an 800-year-old castle or welcoming school groups to the steep sides of Snowdonia. You won’t be short of places to explore in your free time, that’s for certain.
We’re able to offer staff accommodation at some of our properties and we will try to make this clear on our adverts. We offer flexible contracts to our team members (usually a minimum of 25 hours working up to 42.5 hours per week), but we can also look to offer fewer minimum hours to suit your needs too.
You’ll have access to a health cash plan to help you manage the costs of everyday health expenses.
We pay the National Living Wage for all ages.
Enjoy 10 free YHA overnight stays a year.
You’ll have plenty of time to explore the local area. We’ll also give you up to five additional days to volunteer with YHA.
We offer flexible working patterns.
You can enjoy reduced price gym membership nationwide, as well as other fitness savings.
You’ll get reduced price meals on the days when you’re working.
You’ll have access to a number of support networks to help take care of your health and mental wellbeing.
Feel free to contact us via our website – a member of the recruitment team will get back to you as soon as possible.
