87-89 Promenade
Blackpool, LANCASHIRE, FY1 4BJ
United Kingdom

Are you looking for a part-time, seasonal job that’s full of fun in Blackpool? Ever fancied being part of a world where you are rabbit sized at Peter Rabbit: Explore and Play, where sharks watch on as you go about your daily work at SEA LIFE Blackpool, or even the opportunity to work alongside 80 celebrity faces at Madame Tussauds Blackpool!

Our entertainments team are fizzing with fun and a vital ingredient in the guest experience! Therefore, we’re looking for Entertainment Hosts who strive for the best, are guest focused, and radiate passion.

What we are looking for

• You'll have loads of experience working in a customer facing environment
• Friendly and hardworking with a "can do" demeanour
• Have excellent communication and presentation skills
• Fun, dynamic, and friendly personality
• Available to work weekends and bank holidays

You’ll be working out on the front-line within one of the attractions, welcoming, greeting, interacting with, and helping our guests at every opportunity, ensuring they get the absolute most from their visit.

On a typical day (if you can call it that) you could be working with school visits, self-guided tours, workshops for schools, animal feeds and talks. You may also find yourself dressing up in costume.

These are seasonal, fixed term positions to start January 2023. Flexibility is essential as availability of work will vary throughout the season.

Alongside becoming an expert in spreading happiness, you’ll also receive:

• Fortnightly pay depending on age, Under 18: £6.50ph, 18 to 20: £7.75ph, 21 to 22: £9.18ph or 23+: £9.50ph
