Please also see the below message from Lynda Ugarte, Head of HR Japan, Australasia & Pacific regarding starting a career with IHG:

Hi there, I’m reaching out to you to as a current student or student alumni of one of our valued IHG Academy Partners.

Many of you have attended an IHG presentation at one of the Careers Fair days in the past few years, and some of you completed your industry placement with one of our hotels in Australia or New Zealand. Given we are now well and truly in recovery mode after a turbulent 18 months, we wanted to take the time to reconnect with you.
The purpose of our email is to share with you that a future with IHG looks bright. In fact, it has never looked brighter! In Australia and New Zealand, we need around 600 new colleagues to join our hotel estate between now and the end of 2021 and when we add our new hotel openings coming in the next 24 months, we predict our total employee headcount will double by the end of 2022.
Bringing people together is what hospitality’s all about and we’d love you to consider joining our extraordinary world, to be part of our growth in Australasia, and to help us create extraordinary memories and experiences that mean more all around the world.
Why join IHG? At IHG we bring True Hospitality at Work to life through three supporting pillars we call ‘Rooms’. These Rooms are IHG’s commitment and promise to colleagues.
  • Room to Belong – being able to authentically bring your whole self to work, and in return being supported and valued.
  • Room to Grow - is about learning and development – being curious and wanting to better yourself, and in return being given the opportunities to do so and being recognised. Finally,
  • Room to Make a Difference - is about the impact you can make by being a part of IHG, both big and small, and being provided the opportunities to make the big differences.
Our new suite of benefits, myBenefits, includes hallmarks such as flexible work arrangements, paid parental and partner leave, birthday leave, and the ability to use personal leave for proactive wellness. We’ve also just announced myFlex, which gives career seekers another unique way to join the hotel industry, while leading a portfolio type of life!!
Additionally, IHG colleagues have access to the IHG myPerks platform which carries discounts and cashbacks at more than 400 known retailers and service providers. It also gives people access to our online Wellbeing Hub which contains “Move, Mind, Money and Munch” content, which is designed to support staff with their physical, mental and financial wellbeing.
Interested in starting your career with IHG? We hope so! With our wide range of career opportunities there is bound to be something for you. You can search and apply for roles via our Global IHG Careers page and if the role you’re looking for isn’t advertised, you can create a confidential candidate profile and receive a job alert when it is. Just scroll to the bottom of the search and apply screen and click “register” to subscribe to job alerts.

We’d love to stay connected during this time. We regularly post updates and invite you to share in our world on Instagram: IHG Australia Careers and IHG NZ Careers.
I look forward to working with you towards a Career with IHG Hotels & Resorts!
Kind RegardsLynda Ugarte
