A Workplace Where You Can Grow
Whether you are looking for a management role or a young person searching for your first job, we welcome you to apply. We hire from 16 years and older, and we offer a wide range of roles across Pro Karts, Laser Tag, the Trampoline Park, HydroSlide, Mini Golf, Bumper Boats, Oceanside Oasis, and front of house areas. We can often find a role that suits your strengths and personality.
Our culture is friendly, supportive, and focused on helping our team grow. We want young staff members to flourish, gain life skills, and build confidence as they take on new challenges. For experienced applicants, it is a place where leadership, initiative, and good ideas are valued and rewarded.
This job is extremely diverse. With so many different areas across our sites, staff often learn multiple roles during their time here. You might start on one attraction and end up learning three or four different positions, making every shift different and helping you build valuable experience.
We also frequently have projects and upgrades on the go around the park, and we love involving young staff in these. This gives team members the chance to learn real hands on skills that can carry through into trades, technical roles, or future job opportunities. From basic maintenance to problem solving, machinery setup, equipment care, cleaning systems, customer flow management, and team organisation, you will learn skills here that you can take anywhere.
Culture is extremely important to us. We regularly run team building activities across our own attractions as well as off-site adventures to help our staff bond, build trust, and stay connected as a team. Keeping a strong, positive team culture is something we take very seriously, and we believe that when our staff feel supported and valued, they thrive both at work and in their personal growth.
