Summer Work Abroad
How to Work Abroad This Summer
Recruiters hire staff to work in tourism, events, hospitality, bars, clubs/PR, dj/music, hosts, restaurants, hotels, campsites, holiday parks and resorts, summer camps, sports and more. Other options include working in childcare, as an au pair, an activity instructor or language instructor teaching English.
Where to Go
Popular positions include working as a holiday rep in summer holiday hotspots like Bulgaria, Cyprus, France, Greece, Spain and Portugal.
If you like the idea of spending summer with sun, sea, sand and parties, then destinations in European islands and tourist hotspots like Benidorm, Ibiza, Kavos, Malia, Marbella, Magaluf, Ayia Napa, Tenerife and Zante will appeal to you.
For students, one of the best summer jobs is to spend 9 weeks working at a summer camp. This is a great way to get paid and experience the highlights of the United States in your spare time.
Requirements
We process a lot of enquiries from British, Irish and Canadian students seeking summer employment but all nationalities are open to apply for most positions. To be eligible you will need to check the recruiter specifications.
Most companies will require you to be aged 17+ but some companies are more flexible and hire 16 year olds too. If you are 14/15 then it is very difficult to find a position unless you stay local to where you live. Finding summer and seasonal jobs in Europe for non EU citizens, and for British citizens after Brexit is now more complicated.
Benefits
Whether you are a student looking to fill a gap between studies or a full time job, or you fancy a change of scenery, or you are looking for a gap year job, working abroad during summer can be an amazing experience.
Here are some of the main reasons to apply:
• Choose from so many destinations
• Experience living and working away from home
• Some recruiters offer paid summer jobs abroad with flights and accommodation included
• Meet a lot of people and have a lot of fun
