Letting your passion shine through, and letting your personality come out in your work is, for me, really important. When you enjoy your work, it is great to let that show as it helps others see that passion, and shows you are motivated and engaged by what you do. I also think it is really important to be open and honest at work at well. Let your manager and colleagues know how you are feeling, and don't be afraid to ask questions - especially in Trading, asking questions is so important in helping you learn and understand the role.

What do you like about your job and the company?

One of the most exciting things about Trading is you get to see the result of the actions and strategies you implement really quickly. It is always really satisfying to see sales improve off the back of decisions you made and being able to see the instant benefit that brings to the bottom line of the business. Trading also gives you the chance to try new things and take different approaches. No day is the same, and you can take many different actions to try and improve sales, so seeing which ones work the best and which don't means you learn new things quickly.

Head of Quality

Top Insider Advice

As Quality Assurance, we always work with that concept in mind: design, test, feedback. Don't stop any of these 3 things... ever. You can try everything; you can test and arrive to a result. If you manage to understand the potential to improve based on the result, you are in the right position to improve the quality. This will mean you have in mind the entire flow and things to improve. Don't stop yourself!

Top Insider Advice

No matter the role you are applying for within TUI, just be yourself and bring your personality with you. We take a large cross section of the social community and of customers on holiday so equally its important that our colleagues and you feel comfortable in liaising and interacting with them. When I started in the role it was very different, where each crew member was like another but over the years and the transformation of TUI we have learnt that being different and unique is why our customers keep booking with us. Bringing you personality means you can interact in a way that customers enjoy, being respectful and professional does not mean you cant build a rapport and enjoy your working day with us. These skills will also enhance as you progress through your career with TUI, with each role allowing you to explore more about the differences we can make to our colleagues and customers.
