Universal Destinations & Experiences has taken a major step forward in its ambitious plans for Universal Great Britain, the future world-class theme park and resort set to be built near Bedford. The company has now launched dedicated online web forms for individuals interested in employment opportunities and for businesses hoping to become suppliers for the landmark project.

Careers: Express Your Interest Early

Although official hiring is not yet underway, the new “Register Your Interest” job form allows job seekers to be among the first notified when recruitment begins. The park is projected to bring up to 8,000 long-term jobs to the region, with additional roles during the multi-year construction phase.

Positions will eventually span:

  • Guest services & hospitality

  • Entertainment & ride operations

  • Security, maintenance, and landscaping

  • Administrative, IT, and management roles

Prospective candidates can now visit Universal’s official UK planning site to express interest, ensuring they’re on the radar for what will become one of the largest employers in the area.

Supplier Registration Open for UK Businesses

Universal has also opened a supplier interest form for UK-based companies interested in providing goods or services during construction or operation of the Bedford-based resort.

Key sectors include:

  • Construction & civil engineering

  • Sustainable energy & infrastructure

  • Food and beverage supply

  • Theming, design, landscaping, and more

This signals Universal’s commitment to engaging local and national businesses, creating a ripple effect of economic benefit beyond the theme park gates.

A Landmark Project for the UK

The Universal Great Britain resort is slated to open by 2031, and will be Universal’s first major theme park in Europe. The development is expected to attract over 8 million visitors per year, generating billions in economic activity.

Following an extensive public consultation phase in early 2024, Universal continues to work with local councils, government partners, and residents as planning and infrastructure discussions progress.

As the project moves closer to ground breaking, Universal’s proactive engagement strategy offers a glimpse of the massive collaborative effort ahead, one that could reshape the entertainment and economic landscape of Bedfordshire and beyond.
