DCU Center Planning Job Fair On Hopes Of Pandemic Emergence

WORCESTER, MA — The company that operates Worcester's DCU Center will host a local job fair in February, one of dozens at arenas the company manages across the world.

The ASM Global job fairs will take place beginning on Tuesday, and are aimed at boosting staff following two years under the coronavirus pandemic. The DCU Center has been gradually returning events to the arena in recent months.

“The return to live is just what the world needs,” ASM Global CEO Ron Bension said in a news release. “There’s a thrill, an excitement, that makes this business feel communal for everyone involved."

The company is aiming to hire about 1,000 people across about 100 arenas in the U.S. and abroad. The company did not specify which jobs are available in Worcester, but said roles run the gamut from human resources to security and catering. Anyone interested in attending the job fair should register on the ASM Global website.

The DCU Center has events booked through the fall, including Worcester Railers hockey, the state Democratic Convention, and concerts featuring Iron Maiden, Tyler, the Creator and Godsmack.
