About Hospitality & Catering work in Eastern Cape

Hospitality is seasonal along the Garden Route and in the Winelands and steadier in the metropolitan hotel and restaurant groups. Shift work, weekends and public holidays are part of the territory rather than a negotiable extra. This is the one sector that hires on references more than on qualifications: a named venue willing to vouch for you, plus a food handling certificate, will move you to the top of a shortlist faster than a hospitality diploma on its own.

The Eastern Cape job market divides between the automotive cluster around Gqeberha and Uitenhage, manufacturing in Buffalo City, and a business process outsourcing sector that has grown quickly in Gqeberha. Government, education and health are the other large employers here.
