"Does Flight Centre Travel Group have opportunities for growth and career progression?"
A question that I get asked almost daily by my candidates, and one that I am always excited to answer. I always find myself telling them about my favourite FCTG Philosophy: Brightness of Future, or BOF (we love a good acronym here!)
So what is BOF? Well, what it means to me is giving all of our people a chance to find their own unique career pathway within FCTG, helping them to see through personal and professional development, and ultimately, just presenting our people with the chance to "just say yes" and try something new.
Internal mobility is so incredibly important for longevity, and something that I have seen many of my Flightie friends reap the rewards of. My team alone is a great example of the many different pathways you can take within FCTG. Take Lily-Emma finishing up her journey with us in the AU Talent Acquisition team today to make the move to the UK joining their EU team. Danielle moving from Recruiter, to Future Team Leader, to National Recruitment Leader all within the space of less than three years. Ginny wearing multiple hats and taking the opportunity to use her amazing way with words to help our Communications team with the Flight Centre Foundation pages internally and externally. For myself, starting off as a novice Travel Consultant back in 2019, seeing Covid through in my first year, and finally ending up in the BOF I had from day one (Recruitment) back in 2022. I don't think LinkedIn's word limit would allow me to go on and on for all 18 of us, so trust me when I say the list goes on...
Two years on, still loving this role and not yet thinking about what is next, I have been able to see through other BOF opportunities, like taking on different brands in my recruitment portfolio, joining different projects to have my opinions and ideas heard and executed alongside high-level leaders, taking advantage of some of our amazing professional development courses provided free of change by our Learning & Development team... I could go on and on about the opportunities I have been able to take advantage of to better myself professionally and personally.
The advice that I have been given by Flighties before me, and the advice that I would give to anyone who joins FCTG - JUST SAY YES when (not if) these opportunities come your way. You never know where they will take you, but you can guarantee it will be towards a brighter future! 🌟 To find yours, apply for a role with us here: https://lnkd.in/gF4ufpDX 🌟
