subject: Jobs In Bournemouth Offers Great Opportunities In The Service Sector [print this page] Bournemouth is a place that has enjoyed the distinction of being a preferred conference destination for a long time now. It has since developed into a very prosperous business centre attracting a lot if investment from the tourism industry. Many new resorts, hotels and bars have made their presence felt in this town and that is providing a lot of job opportunities to the locals to play their part in growing this service oriented business further.
It is the location of Bournemouth that lends it that edge over others. Being a coastal town, businessmen prefer to visit it to combine business with pleasure and the tourism industry is indeed one major driver for its emergence as a prosperous town. Business tourism has indeed increased and providing with plenty of job opportunities to the local population of this town with many of them contributing their bit in organising the various business seminars, conferences and exhibitions.
In line with what is happening around Dorset, it is the service industry that is employing a major chunk of the population. This is interesting because this figure of 93% that was employed in the service sector is almost 10% above the average service sector employment in Great Britain as well as the South West. It indicates that the manufacturing industry is slowly on the decline in these parts and though Poole does have a manufacturing base, it is becoming evident that the manufacturing interest in this part is steadily reducing.
The tourism industry as mentioned earlier has thrown up a lot of jobs in Bournemouth for the locals. That experience of dealing with customers and that aptitude is enabling them to have the service mindset that is required to deal with customers in other service oriented industries such as banks, financial institutions and so on.
Many such companies have moved their offices to places like Bournemouth due to cheaper real estate prices and as part of their expansion plans. They do not mind recruiting the locals and do not mind imparting the right kind of training to bring them up to speed with their requirement. They are also aware of the fact that locals know the business environment better and are keen to learn.
The other point is regular employees working at the main locations such as London do not always fancy moving to smaller locations and that creates the opportunities for the local population. On the other side of the spectrum there are other employees who do not mind making the switch in their career to a smaller place as they feel stagnated in their current position and think a change of scene with a new profile may help them in the future.
They are thus willing to make the compromise of getting separated from their families and enduring this separation if that can help them make a fresh start or help them consolidate their current position in the organisation.
