Championing Modern Work Experience in Tourism: Our Pledge to Future Talent

At Lovat Parks, we believe that great hospitality is built on great people and that begins with inspiring the next generation. That’s why we are proud to pledge our commitment to delivering Modern Work Experience opportunities across our parks and within the wider tourism sector.

For young people exploring their future career options, tourism offers so much more than many realise. From guest experience and sustainability to digital marketing, operations, outdoor education, and environmental stewardship, our industry is rich with diverse skills and rewarding pathways. By opening our doors to young learners, we can showcase the depth and variety of roles that keep our parks thriving.

Modern Work Experience isn’t just about observing, it’s about doing, discovering, and growing. We’re dedicated to creating hands on, supportive experiences that build confidence, capability, and aspiration. Whether it’s learning how a holiday park operates behind the scenes, understanding what sustainable tourism looks like in practice, or developing people-focused skills that last a lifetime, we want every young person to walk away feeling inspired.

But creating meaningful opportunities for youth isn’t something any business should do alone. By sharing our pledge, we hope to encourage other employers across Cornwall and beyond to join their local Careers Hub and become part of a powerful network of organisations shaping the future workforce. When businesses work together, we all benefit and young people gain clearer pathways into employment, and local industries grow stronger, more resilient talent pools.

At Lovat Parks, B Corp and community is at the heart of everything we do. Supporting young people into fulfilling careers is not only the right thing to do, it’s an investment in the long-term health of our communities, our industry, and our shared future.

We’re proud to play our part. And we invite others to join us.
