Emirates holding recruitment drive in five Irish locations

Dubai-based airline Emirates is holding a recruitment campaign in five locations in Ireland in May and June to help fulfil its cabin crew requirements which are growing in line with the continued expansion of the company.

Currently serving 123 destinations around the globe, Emirates is seeking to hire 3,800 new cabin crew members globally this financial year. It now has over 12,000 flight attendants, from more than 120 countries, speaking over 50 languages.

The cabin crew open days will take place in Dublin on 5 May at Hilton Dublin City, Charlemont Place; Galway on 11 May at the Harbour Hotel, New Dock Road; Limerick on 14 May at the Limerick Strand Hotel, Ennis Road; Waterford on 28 May at the Granville Hotel on the Quays and Cork’s Gresham Metropole Hotel on MacCurtain Street will host Emirates’ open day on 4 June.

Emirates already employs over 280 Irish nationals and  more than 180 cabin crew were appointed to the airline, following the last two rounds of recruitment days in Ireland, in February this year and October last.

The crew will be based in Dubai, home of Emirates, which employs over 56,000 people of all nationalities, across the world.

“Emirates is keen to grow its Irish cabin crew numbers and build on the success of earlier recruitment campaigns in the market.  We know our customers enjoy speaking to fellow nationals during a flight, which is why we have cabin crew from all over the world,” Margaret Shannon, Emirates country manager Ireland.
