🍽️ Interested in Hospitality? Come along and find out what’s possible!

We’re opening our doors for a Hospitality Open Evening, giving anyone with an interest in the industry the chance to meet UHI Orkney staff and local hospitality businesses, chat about opportunities and discover the different pathways into hospitality.

Whether you’re interested in working in the industry, from baristas and cocktail making to chefs and kitchen hosts, are a local business looking for staff, want to support and grow Orkney’s hospitality industry, or are considering studying a Hospitality course through UHI Orkney — come along and have a chat!

It’s a chance to meet people already working in the industry, find out what opportunities are available locally and explore how you could get involved, whether that’s through work, business, supporting the sector or studying.

Everyone is welcome — come along, meet the people, explore the opportunities and discover where Hospitality could take you🍸☕👨‍🍳
