Job description

easyJet Cabin Crew – London Southend 2027 (Fixed-Term Contract). Your Career Takes Off from Southend – Join Our Award-Winning Crew. At easyJet, Cabin Crew are at the heart of every journey. You'll be the friendly face that welcomes customers onboard, keeps them safe, and helps create a great experience from take-off to landing. No two days are the same. One day you might be flying to a sunny beach destination, the next to a vibrant city within our network—all while working alongside a supportive, energetic team. Safety is always our number one priority. As Cabin Crew, you'll play a vital role in maintaining the highest safety standards while delivering service that feels genuine, confident, and effortless. If you love working with people, thrive in fast-paced environments, and want a career that takes you places, this could be the opportunity you've been looking for.

What We're Looking For.

You don't need aviation experience to apply—we're looking for people with the right attitude and passion for customer service. You'll be a great fit if you:

• Have at least 6 months' experience in a customer-facing or people-focused role.
• Communicate clearly, confidently, and kindly.
• Stay calm under pressure and make safe, well-informed decisions.
• Enjoy working as part of a diverse, energetic team.
• Take ownership, solve problems with empathy, and go the extra mile for customers.

The Essentials.

To meet regulatory and operational requirements, you'll need to:

• Be 18 years or older.
• Be between 5'2" (157.5 cm) and 6'3" (190 cm) without shoes.
• Be fluent in written and spoken English.
• Hold the right to work in the UK, with a valid passport and unrestricted travel across the UK, EEA, and the easyJet network (Skilled Worker visa sponsorship is not available).
• Live within 90 minutes of your chosen base or be willing to relocate.
• Have no visible tattoos on the head and face (all tattoos must be inoffensive).
• Be comfortable selling items from our CAFE.SHOP range, including alcohol (this contributes to commission earnings).
• Be able to swim 25 metres unaided, tread water, inflate a life jacket, and climb in and out of a life raft.
• Pass a UK CAA Cabin Crew medical and fit securely into a jump seat.

Why Join easyJet?

With over 355 aircraft flying to 38 countries across 1,207 routes, we're here to make low-cost travel easy, accessible, and enjoyable. Strength isn't just in numbers—it's in our people and our values. As a short-haul airline, we don't operate long-haul flights, which means most of your duties return to base the same day. At some of our bases, you'll also have the opportunity to enjoy night stops, allowing you to experience destinations while you work. But what really makes easyJet special is our people. We're proud of our Orange Spirit—the energy, teamwork, and positivity that connects our crews across our network. We live by our Promise Behaviours: Be Safe– Safety always comes first. Be Welcoming– We treat everyone with warmth, respect, and inclusivity. Be Bold– We take initiative and aim high. Be Challenging– We stay curious, embrace change, and learn every day. At easyJet, we'll also invest in your development. With structured training and clear career pathways, many of our crew progress into roles such as Cabin Manager or explore opportunities across the wider easyJet network.

• 6 months fixed-term employment contract on a Flexible Roster pattern (part-time options may be available after training).
• Competitive salary with strong commission potential.
• Structured training to meet the highest standards in the industry.
• Generous annual leave.
