The theme park wants to hire people to work in its Thomas Land attraction – which is celebrating its 10th birthday this year.

William Bryan, Managing Director at Drayton Manor Park, said: “This year is set to be an exciting one, as we’re celebrating 10 years of Thomas Land.

“As a family run business in Staffordshire for more than 65 years, we are proud to continue to support and hire from the local community.’’

The attraction is holding a ‘Working for Drayton’ event in Thomas Land on Saturday 27th January between 10:30am and 12:30pm.

Candidates can ask questions, find out more about the available positions and talk to current and previous members of staff about what it is like to work there.

Employee benefits include flexible working hours, variety within your role, learning transferable skills, free park ticket allocation and subsidised lunch provision.

Both full and part time opportunities are available.
