Do theme parks offer good career opportunities?

Olly Mann considers some of the jobs that might be on offer once the theme park opens.

Thousands of jobs will be created once Universal United Kingdom Resort opens in 2031.

But can those roles in areas such as entertainment, hospitality, creative and technical lead to long-term careers?

In this episode, Olly Mann speaks to someone who worked a Disneyland Paris for over a decade and a composer who has created soundtracks for various attractions.

Plus, the head of a local school discusses how they are helping to get their students in pole position for employment at the park.
