Birmingham’s Frankfurt Christmas Market recruiting staff for 2024
Organisers of Birmingham’s Frankfurt Christmas Marketing are looking to recruit more than 300 staff this year.
Birmingham’s Frankfurt Christmas Market is once again looking to recruit more than 300 people to support its stalls when it returns to the city centre on 1 November.
The event’s organisers – Frankfurt Christmas Market Ltd – are looking to fill a range of customer-facing and behind the scenes roles ranging from bar staff, catering assistants and salespeople on gift stalls, to kitchen assistants and porters.
There is a mix of part-time and full-time roles working alongside the German stallholders and their core team of staff, with hourly rates starting at £12 per hour.
Applications for all vacancies are now open on the market’s official website.
Interviews will take place on a rolling basis from 4 September and continue in the run up until the market opens on 1 November 2024.
The Victoria Square bandstand will see Monday ‘open mic’ sessions returning to give young, up and coming performers and musicians a chance to showcase their talents. The best two acts will perform in a primetime December slot.
Choirs from local schools, charities and community groups will also feature on the market’s community music programme.
German musicians will perform weekday lunchtimes and evenings daily, with local performers performing between 12pm and 6pm on Saturdays and Sundays.
