SEASONAL ZONE MONITOR

Position Summary

The Zone Monitor is responsible for the direct supervision of a designated section within Jungle Island’s inflatable activations, including Space Jump! and Aqua Rush. This role ensures participant safety, maintains structured session flow, enforces operational rules, and contributes to a high-energy, well-managed guest experience.

Zone Monitors operate under the direction of the Lead Supervisor and must maintain constant visual awareness and physical presence within their assigned zone.

This is an active, safety-first role requiring continuous engagement, movement, and decision-making — not a passive observation position.

• Ensure no re-entry without proper wristband.
• Assist with structured session resets and capacity verification when required.

3. Guest Interaction

• Greet guests with energy and professionalism.
• Provide clear and concise safety instructions prior to participation.
• Address guest and parent questions respectfully.
• Reinforce rules without confrontation.

• Follow injury and incident protocols exactly as trained.

5. Cleanliness & Operational Readiness

• Conduct ongoing visual inspections of assigned zone.
• Remove debris and report equipment concerns immediately.
• Support reset between sessions when applicable.
• Assist with end-of-day cleaning and shutdown procedures.

Required Qualifications

• Experience working with children preferred.
