Recruitment event confirmed for Wythenshawe
The Manchester Airport jobs fair will take place on Wednesday 4 November 2026, from 10 am to 2 pm, in the Concourse at Wythenshawe Forum. The free event will bring employers recruiting for around 300 vacancies together with local jobseekers. Booking is essential.
The event will bring together recruiters covering several areas of airport work. Visitors will also be able to find out about application advice and training support, rather than only discussing individual vacancies.
Manchester Airport jobs fair: date and location
The Wythenshawe Forum event listing confirms that the fair will take place in the Concourse at Forum Centre, Simonsway, Wythenshawe, Manchester, M22 5RX.
According to the Forum listing, visitors can discuss vacancies directly with employers, explore careers at different levels and obtain advice about applications. That gives the event a broader purpose than simply presenting a list of job openings.
Employers and airport vacancies represented
Manchester Airport’s announcement dated 20 October 2026 says recruiters are seeking to fill around 300 vacancies. It names MAG, DHL and Swissport among the exhibitors, rather than presenting those three organisations as the complete line-up.
The release headline refers to more than 300 roles, while its main text puts the total at around 300 vacancies. The figure covers advertised recruitment opportunities with airport employers.
The announced work areas include security, hospitality, terminal operations, ground handling, passenger assistance, retail, catering and logistics. The airport event page also identifies customer service and administration opportunities.
Booking and what to bring
The official airport event page, checked on 23 October 2026, says entry is free, places are limited and booking is essential. It provides a link to the ticket-booking service and asks attendees to bring their CV.
The current event pages describe booking as essential, although the 20 October announcement recommended booking in advance.
For questions about the Manchester Airport jobs fair, the airport event page gives MAG.Academies@magairports.com. This is the published event contact; questions about a particular job’s conditions should be put to the relevant recruiter.
Airport Academy pre-employment support
The Airport Academy is also due to explain its free pre-employment support, including accredited training, according to the 20 October announcement. It operates through a partnership between Manchester Airport and Trafford & Stockport College Group.
