Ann-Kathrin Rahe: New start in Billerbeck
A new job, a new city, new colleagues and neighbours - and all this in the middle of the Corona pandemic. Many people would probably feel a bit queasy, but Ann-Kathrin Rahe takes the challenge calmly and looks ahead. This is probably also due to the fact that she has already travelled a lot: the 29-year-old has already lived in Austria, Canada and Asia. Now she has moved to Münsterland for her new job. And she is looking forward to getting to know many people here soon and thus becoming a little more familiar with the region.
Dream job in tourism management
She has already landed well in her new job. She has been working as a tourism manager for the city of Billerbeck since the beginning of 2021. It's a multifaceted job: she advises tourists and recommends hiking trails and cycling tours, city tours and other offers in the town. At the same time, she is in contact with the owners of holiday flats and hotels, with restaurateurs and with the other municipalities in the Baumberge to promote the town and the region together. This also includes working out new offers and further developing existing ones.
She prepared for her profession not only during her tourism management studies in Görlitz: She worked for Lüdinghausen Marketing for two years during the semester breaks and got to know and appreciate the Münsterland region. When she came across the job offer in Billerbeck after graduating, she didn't hesitate for long and sent off an application. One day after the interview, she got the acceptance letter and started packing for her move to her new home.
