Secret Bay, the boutique resort in Portsmouth, will host a job fair on October 5, offering employment opportunities as the property prepares for the upcoming tourism season. The event is expected to draw job seekers from across the island, particularly from the north, where the resort is a major employer.
The job fair will take place at the Secret Bay property in Portsmouth. Positions available span several departments, including hospitality, culinary, housekeeping, and guest services. The resort has not yet specified the number of roles to be filled, but the event signals continued investment in the local workforce.
Secret Bay is one of Dominica's most recognised luxury properties, known for its eco-friendly villas and high-end service. It has received international accolades, including being named among the world's best resorts by travel publications. The resort's operations support not only direct employees but also local suppliers of produce, seafood, and other goods.
For Dominica's economy, tourism remains a vital pillar, and the cruise and stay-over seasons bring renewed demand for hospitality staff. Job fairs like this one provide a direct link between employers and residents seeking work, particularly in the Portsmouth area where employment opportunities can be limited outside of fishing and agriculture.
The October 5 event is open to the public. Interested persons are advised to attend with a curriculum vitae and any relevant certifications. The resort has encouraged applicants to come prepared for on-site interviews, as hiring managers will be present.
Secret Bay's job fair comes as the island continues to recover and rebuild its tourism product following recent global disruptions. The resort itself has undergone expansion in recent years, adding new villas and amenities. That growth translates into a need for additional staff across multiple skill levels.
Residents of Portsmouth and surrounding communities, including the Kalinago Territory, are expected to take advantage of the opportunity. The fair also aligns with broader government efforts to boost employment and reduce the need for Dominicans to seek work abroad.
Further details, including exact times and a full list of positions, can be obtained directly from Secret Bay. The resort has asked prospective attendees to monitor its official channels for any updates. With the tourism season approaching, the job fair represents a timely chance for job seekers to secure a role in one of the island's flagship hotels.
