Pineapple Recruitment helps young people find work in catering industry
Abstract
Pineapple Recruitment, which specialises in providing experts for the UK’s catering and hospitality sectors, has become the latest business to back an initiative which provides work opportunities for young people in Bristol who have faced inequality and racial discrimination.

The recruitment company has thrown its support behind the Bristol Future Talent Partnership, which works with 14 to 21-year-olds from black and ethnic minority backgrounds to provide them with jobs and career breaks.

Three team members from Pineapple Recruitment gave their time for free to help support ten young people at a recent careers event. The trio helped students with writing and improving their CVs, advice on how to find and apply for suitable roles as well as practicing interview techniques.

Kasia Krieger, business manager from Pineapple Recruitment, said: “The recent event was a great example of that and we’ll also be using our network in the catering and hospitality industries to identify opportunities for them should they wish to go down that route.

“What is really amazing about the partnership is how it focuses on opportunities for young people who have been facing tough times. It builds on work we’ve done in other areas of the South West, Gloucestershire and Worcestershire with young people and ethnic minorities, and we feel we can play our role in helping as many people as possible. We look forward to celebrating their successes in the months and years ahead.”
