Careers

In the professional sector of tourism, there are as many jobs as there are destinations. Grouped into six major sectors (Transport; Leisure; Territorial Institutions; Catering & Accommodation; Events; Travel), all of which are as rich in possibilities as the others and which will lead you to positions whose goals may be centered around design, sales, animation or information.

15 years ago, there was little or no mention of Yield Managers, Ecotourism Animators, Customized Travel Consultants, Data Analysts, or Web Marketing Managers… The next 15 years are just as promising. This is where you could have a key role to play.
