Job description

What the **** is a Boom Host?...We think it’s one of the
best roles going in the hospitality industry, but let us tell you a little more
so you can agree.

Throughout
the week you could be doing anything from Hosting a Shufl Board competition,
showing someone’s grandparents how to throw an axe, playing a part in hosting a
Corporate Party or a mega full venue hire, to hosting Hens and Stags and
creating a truly epic unforgettable moment for them.

You’ll be the life of the party, ready to seize every opportunity and making it
count and the venue guru on all things Boom. You’ll know our gaming rules inside out through
training with extraordinary team members and you’ll be fully game-fluent being
to explain them to anyone coming into our business. We seek to make
peoples day, creating the unexpected and spontaneous sparks that light the fuse
and get the party well and truly started, and keep it going right up until 3AM!
Please note that we are able to trade until 3AM daily, and so we need to ensure you have a safe way to travel to and from work at those times; our peak days are Thursday-Saturday so you will need to have availability for these days, plus around Christmas and New Years ?
