Be who you want to be. I put the time in to build myself in my career and even now I am still growing. The support and help I've got around me means I have constant help to get me where I want in my career. Even if you don't want to progress up within your role, the support is there as and when needed. Happiness is key within a career, if you aren't happy in what you are doing then it's probably not a role for you. But when you are happy in your role then that will radiate off of you.

What do you like about your job and the company?
The happiness that is received when you've managed to book someone a long-awaited holiday or a family trip is so rewarding. I get so much joy out of sending people away for their holidays, whether it be a short or long holiday. Holidays are an exciting thing, so the excitement radiates around my job. You can be booking a family trip to Disney and have children overfilled with excitement or booking someone's relaxing honeymoon but still have that same joy from each conversation. The job is constant rush of happy hormones. Even when speaking to colleagues, those in my store or in the company, I feel those emotions are similar.
Greatest achievements
Within my role I have targets I want to hit. Some months can be slower than others but setting yourself a target will give you the motivation to succeed. Last year I put more time into looking at my targets and how I could achieve them and how I can help my store and colleagues in hitting their targets. In setting this goal we achieved (as a team) the targets we needed. This is something as an individual and store we are proud of. It's an achievement in itself that I'm doing my best in what I do, but when the figures can also back that up it is an absolute positive!

I firmly believe in the value of learning and growth. For me, saying "I don't know" isn't a conclusion—it's an invitation to explore and understand. This mindset, deeply rooted in my upbringing, comes from my father, who taught us that curiosity and persistence are essential traits. Whether it’s acquiring a new skill, trying out a new recipe, or mastering a tool in Word, I view learning as an ongoing journey that enriches both personal and professional life. Every new piece of knowledge adds value, equipping me to tackle challenges creatively and with confidence. To me, learning is not optional—it’s a lifelong pursuit that continuously opens doors.

I have always been an introvert, but working at TUI has helped me push myself. By volunteering to help on different projects and saying 'yes' to opportunities has meant that I have had the chance to work with so many different people and expose myself to different projects. This has enabled me to develop a larger skillset and helped increase my confidence. I'm always willing to try new things and think of different solutions which is key at TUI since we really value innovation. If you want to develop yourself and in turn, your career, then don't be afraid to push yourself outside of your comfort zone and say yes.

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.
