Popular Summer Jobs destinations

#1 Spain

Summer jobs in Spain are very popular. Indeed, Spaniard’s laid-back attitude means they are welcoming and generally open to employing outsiders – which is good news for you! That famous summer destination is perfect for those who really want to immerse themselves in the holiday vibe (whilst getting paid!). You can find different kinds of work in hospitality: from bartending summer jobs, tourist entertainers to resort work. All those summer jobs will definitely take you to beautiful locations where you can take a trip to the beach with your colleagues at the end of your shift!

#2 Portugal

With one of the lowest costs of living in Europe, the lower-than-average wage goes a long way, as rent, transport, food, and activities such as eating and drinking out are cheaper than you may expect! As with working abroad anywhere, knowing the local language will help you impress recruiters when applying for jobs, but there are some roles where basic Portuguese is enough (and you can always pick up helpful phrases whilst you’re out there!).
Positions can be joined in June, July, August, and September, and sometimes accommodation will be provided, meaning your wage can go on exploring your new city! Furthermore, you will have the chance to meet a variety of people with a summer job in Portugal, which is especially helpful if you have traveled out alone as you are sure to make new friends!

#3 Greece

The main opportunity for those looking for summer jobs in Greece is to find work at the numerous bars, clubs, and restaurants that tourists flock to in their masses. When looking for a seasonal job, the best bet is to go where your fellow citizens tend to congregate; the Ionian islands and Rhodes attract British travelers, and Americans are frequently found on Crete, Santorini, and Mykonos – you are much more likely to find a role where English is the language spoken in the establishment unless you have a good understanding of the local language, in which case the world is your oyster! Often this can mean late nights, as shifts can run into 4 am in peak party season, so make sure you consider whether this is feasible for you!

#4 United Kingdom

Summer jobs in the UK range from cleaning staff through to sports camps supervisors and managers. The big cities such as London, Glasgow, Edinburgh, and Dublin require hospitality workers all year round but it is out in the countryside and on the coast where the UK houses some of the best traveler and holiday jobs that you will find anywhere. From the Highland resorts in Scotland (such as Aviemore) down to the water sports centers in the Solent – if you don’t mind taking a small risk with the weather, the UK provides a well-developed tourist destination with attractions ranging from the countryside, mountains, and abundant history.
Do you want to travel, find new experiences, and indulge in British culture? (whilst adding the benefits of enhancing your CV).

#5 New-Zealand

The adventure capital of the world is the dream location for many to spend their summer, and for those looking for summer jobs in New Zealand, there are plenty of opportunities to head across the world! New Zealand’s summer runs from September to March and is the busiest tourist time so finding work there can be a great opportunity to escape the winter at home and immerse yourself in the culture by living and working alongside the locals, with the bonus of getting to spend Christmas in the sun!

#6 Europe

Summer jobs in Europe mean you can live and work in a variety of sunny destinations, making money, friends, and memories as you travel to amazing locations. Summer jobs in Europe are the ultimate ticket to an incredible summer adventure that won’t break the bank, as well as having the added benefit of looking great on your CV! There are countless summer jobs in Europe available, so if you want the summer of a lifetime, what are you waiting for?

#7 Australia

Once you make the journey to the other side of the world and land down under, you won’t want to come back any time soon, get ready for the adventure of a lifetime! We’re talking golden beaches on every coast, the mysterious outback, a crazy nightlife, and natural beauty both in the wild and on the streets – an adventure for everyone! It’s no surprise that thousands of travelers head across the world every year to experience true Aussie life with a summer job in Australia
