  • Resolve guest concerns quickly and effectively with a positive, solution-focused approach.

  • Uphold company policies and maintain a culture of safety, professionalism, and fun.

Support Operations & Partnerships

  • Partner closely with Human Resources to recruit and hire new team members.

  • Work hand-in-hand with park management to coordinate events and park-wide initiatives.

  • Identify operational needs (staffing, maintenance, signage, safety) and take swift action.

Other duties as assigned — because every day brings something new!

What We’re Looking For

  • 2–3 years of experience (hospitality, retail, attractions, or fast-paced environments preferred)

  • 1 year of leadership/management experience

  • Strong sales skills and a passion for delivering outstanding guest service

  • Ability to work independently, manage multiple priorities, and lead under pressure

  • Excellent communication, leadership, coaching, and conflict-resolution skills

  • Flexible availability — including nights, weekends, and holidays

  • Experience in attractions, games, entertainment, or amusement a strong plus

  • Customer service (2 years) and sales experience (1 year) preferred

  • Why You’ll Love Working With Us

We’re committed to investing in our people and helping them build long-term careers.

Benefits & Perks:

  • Competitive salary
