Local jobseekers have registered their interest to work for David Jones when the leading retailer opens a department store at Mandurah Forum in early 2018.
Job hunters in the Peel region got another opportunity to learn first-hand about new employment opportunities at Mandurah Forum with David Jones hosting a careers fair on Wednesday,
It was a chance for candidates who have experience or qualifications in a range of areas including beauty, fashion, home, food and beverage to meet the recruitment team and register their interest for full time, part-time and casual opportunities at Mandurah Forum’s new David Jones.
Leadership opportunities are also available.
Centre Manager Jacqueline McKenzie said David Jones opening their doors in early 2018 is not only exciting for our shoppers but also for local residents who would love the opportunity to work in a premium department store.
Since beginning Mandurah Forum’s $350 million redevelopment in early 2016, the team has been committed to creating local employment opportunities.
It is estimated that the Mandurah Forum redevelopment will create 1,000 jobs during construction and more than 700 ongoing retail, hospitality and service jobs at the completed centre.
“Our team is proud to be making a difference to the Peel region’s employment by recruiting a local workforce for our growing centre,” Ms McKenzie added.
The David Jones Careers Fair follows Mandurah Forum’s Jobs Fair in June this year, which also provided the opportunity for job seekers to connect with 15 retailers who had more than 100 jobs available.
Mandurah Forum look forward to hosting another Jobs Fair early next year to provide job seekers with another opportunity to learn about available retail, hospitality, services roles at the new Heart of the South in early 2018.
More details about the next Jobs Fair and the range of available roles will be posted on Mandurah Forum’s website and Facebook page closer to the date.
