Tourism

Overview
Help build Scotland’s international reputation. The country’s enduring popularity as a holiday destination isn’t just down to its historic architecture, breathtaking countryside and world-famous cuisine. Those who work in tourism also have a crucial part to play, ensuring that visitors have a fantastic experience and go home to spread the word.
Chefs, events organisers, hotel managers, kitchen assistants and tour guides are just some of the occupations in demand. If you’re a strong communicator and willing to work hard to brighten your customers’ days, then this industry could be for you. And, best of all, you don’t need an academic background to carve out an impressive career for yourself in tourism.
