The Glasgow-based firm is creating new positions in sales and marketing, web development and management, plus a ‘significant number’ of modern apprentice roles.
It has also announced new opportunities across its homeworking and franchise divisions.
The recruitment drive will see new jobs created in Scotland and the North of England, with posts available in stores across Glasgow, East Kilbride, Edinburgh, Newcastle, and at Barrhead’s specialist cruise call centre in Larbert.
Homeworking opportunities are available across the UK.
Barrhead Travel chief executive Sharon Munro said: "Our people are at the heart of our business and we are passionate about developing each and every member of staff. I started with the company as a modern apprentice and I’m very proud to have progressed through the business to the role of chief executive.
"There are fantastic opportunities for progression within the company, and we also give members of staff the chance to experience different areas of the business."
