Fancy serving up a slice of the action?
Four Star Pizza which has 13 stores around Northern Ireland, has today announced a recruitment drive.
Thirty new team members will be employed across Belfast and Lisburn, alongside a new ‘Earn As You Learn’ apprenticeship scheme in partnership with Belfast Met.
The pizza chain will be hosting a recruitment open day at the Belfast Met Springvale Campus on Friday, November 30 from 2pm to 4pm.
Candidates can benefit from being interviewed for positions on the spot as well as receive information about the company’s partnership with Belfast Met.
The newly announced scheme, which already has two new recruits, Adam McFarlane and Alex Tibuc, is designed to allow Four Star Pizza employees to gain qualifications relevant to the hospitality industry via Belfast Met and is structured so that the new students’ training takes place during their normal paid working day.
Employees who wish to access the scheme will be mentored by both Belfast Met trainers and experienced Four Star Pizza team managers, while any employees who require additional training in maths, English or ICT can also access essential skills training as part of the course.
Scott Higginson, Managing Director at Four Star Pizza, said the company is thrilled to be announcing these 30 new positions.
“We will be holding interviews on the day and offering positions on the spot for these 30 new roles in customer service, pizza making, and management across Belfast and Lisburn.
“If you’re interested in hearing more about what we have to offer at Four Star Pizza, we look forward to seeing you there on the day!” he added.
Emma Morrison, Employer Engagement Executive at Belfast Met’s Centre for Skills and Apprenticeships, said Scott and his team recognised that a successful business model requires skilled, qualified and motivated staff who can foresee a future career pathway.
“We are confident that our Four Star Pizza participants in the scheme will benefit greatly from the Earn As You Learn accredited skills development programme and can expect to have a promising career ahead of them,” added Emma.
The Four Star Pizza recruitment open day will take place from 2pm to 4pm on Friday, November 30 at the Belfast Met Springvale Campus.
Those interested in attending are encouraged to bring along a copy of their CV as interviews will be conducted on the day and successful candidates are expected to be offered positions on the spot.
