Testimonials
What do our team love? What keeps them engaged and motivated? Why should you follow in their footsteps?
"Six years, three roles and so many memorable moments to smile about. No two years have been the same for me at Forest Holidays and I’m proud to work for a business that strives to continuously evolve. I’ve been able to grow personally and professionally through our internal leadership development programmes and have been supported by the business to access external ones too, such as the WiHTL Global Female Leadership programme. Being a purpose led brand makes us special, it’s rewarding to work for a business that strives to be not only the best for it’s customers, but the best for nature and communities too."
Gemma Chance, Head of Brand Purpose
"As you drive down into the wooded valley, you leave your troubles at the top of the drive. The peace and tranquillity, you can hear the birds around us. It’s such a fabulous place to be, with the millpond, the industrial heritage. It’s a piece of magic that I never want to leave."
Stuart Moir, General Manager
"After deciding I wanted a complete career change I joined Forest Holidays in 2019 as support crew for laundry I also took on extra hours on hot tubs. I quickly fell in love with the unique working environment Forest Holidays offers. I embraced the opportunities to progress to Assistant Housekeeping Manager, Housekeeping Manager and then onto Deputy General Manager. My development was supported by the Leadership Academy which I successfully completed in September 2021."
Emily Bowes, Deputy General Manager
"What I love about Forest Holidays is the incredible people who make it. I’ve been lucky enough to work with many of them during my tenure. My colleagues play a significant role in driving me forward. I joined Forest Holidays shortly after a career break. But I never felt left out or struggling; thanks to the support and motivation from my colleagues and managers who listened and valued my perspective. I am always seen as a champion of quality."
Suvarna Mohan, QA Lead
