The park, located in Chessy, already employs nearly 16,000 employees, which has earned it recognition as “one of the largest establishments in France” by INSEE. satur73 / stock.adobe.com
Maintenance jobs are particularly sought after by the park, which lacks the resources to renovate its attractions. Catering candidates are also welcome.
This should interest those who have always dreamed of working alongside Mickey, Snow White or Darth Vader. The most famous amusement park in Europe, Disneyland Paris (Chessy) is preparing to hire 8,500 additional employees, including 1,500 on permanent contracts. This is in any case the objective of the annual recruitment campaign launched at the beginning of the month by the park. “We especially need maintenance and restoration labor.», specify the human resources managers of Disneyland Paris to our colleagues at Parisian.
Despite its notoriety, the park is bearing the brunt of labor shortages in certain stressed professions, in the field of maintenance in particular. Candidates capable of maintaining and repairing attractions are not common, and the parks compete fiercely for them. “Maintenance skills are hard to find, because apart from in another park, you can’t find them anywhere else», recognizes the director of human resources of the park in the columns of the Parisian.
Looking for engineers and technicians
More than thirty professions involved in the renovation of attractions are coveted by the park: technicians, engineers… In total, more than 120 permanent positions remain available in this field. Beginners looking for training in the attraction sector are also welcome. According to management, they would benefit from a salary slightly higher than the minimum wage (2%) at the start of their employment.
This is not the first time that the park has been so short of resources. Already last year, EuroDisney announced that it would recruit several thousand employees during its annual campaign. As a reminder, the park already employs nearly 16,000 employees, which has earned it recognition as “one of the largest establishments in France» by INSEE. After laying off nearly 1,000 employees at the height of the health crisis, Disneyland is now seeking to expand and diversify its workforce, as the park continues to expand. “The Avengers Land has just been inaugurated and we are preparing the expansion of the next Land, which will increase our recruitment needs tenfold. explains to our colleagues the direction of the group.
Will the candidates jostle at the gates of the Disney kingdom? One thing is certain: after the impressive recruitment campaign orchestrated by Parc Astérix this summer (2000 seasonal workers hired), this new announcement testifies to the excellent form of amusement parks, which definitely do not seem to be experiencing the crisis.
