CROSS SECTORS
Many of the jobs available in the Active Leisure and Learning sector provide people with skills and knowledge that are highly demanded by employers across any number of sectors. For example, essential skills including communication, team working and customer service that might be gained through roles in sport or fitness centres, are increasingly demanded in other sales and service related industries. The very nature of the work in the sector ensures that successful employees and those who are selected for career promotions, are those with passion and enthusiasm, who exhibit a desire to further their careers through continuous professional development and high levels of motivation. SkillsActive works very closely with the other Sector Skills Councils to identify transferable skills and experience which is valued across other sectors. There are many generic skills which can be developed through working in active leisure environments such as communication, team working and customer service, which would be placed in high demand by employers in sectors such as tourism, the media and retail.
