"These are really important roles that contribute directly to keeping New Zealand's aviation system running smoothly, helping travellers, and getting people and freight to where they need to be," said the chief executive.
Hurihanganui explained that the job fair comes as more of their partners are in search of new additions to their workforce.
"We wanted to make it as easy as possible for job seekers to see the huge variety of airport jobs, talk directly to employers, ask questions of the people they could be working alongside, and see how they could have a long-term career at the airport," said the executive.
The Auckland Airport Job Fair will have three sessions, from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
"For anyone who loves travel, loves aviation, loves the excitement of airports, now is a fantastic time to join the teams operating at Auckland Airport," said Hurihanganui.
