WHO WE ARE:

At Sky Zone, our mission is to enrich lives through the power of boundless play - whether that’s on the trampoline court, behind the scenes, or at the corporate level. We believe play fuels confidence, connection, and joy, and we’re proud to create experiences that reflect that purpose in everything we do.

As the leader in active indoor entertainment, we host unforgettable birthdays, team events, and school parties across the country. Backed by our parent company, CircusTrix, and recognized as a top franchise and growth brand, we continue to raise the bar for innovation and impact in the industry.

Our culture is shaped by our core values: We Play Without Limits , Ignite Innovation , Grow Together , Fuel Joy , and Serve Big, Give Bigger . Whether in a park or a boardroom, these values guide how we lead, collaborate, and show up for each other and for the communities we serve.

WHO YOU ARE:

Team Lead is a hands-on, early-leadership role built for high-potential individuals ready to step up. You'll rotate through key operational areas - Sales & Service, Parties & Events, and Food & Beverage/Facilities - gaining real responsibility, leadership experience, and the skills to run a shift like a pro.

No need to be a fully developed manager just dependable, driven, and ready to learn. You're the kind of person who shows up, jumps in, and sets the tone. When senior leaders aren't on-site, we'll count on you to step in as Manager on Duty (MOD) and keep the park running strong.

• Deliver timely communication of guest issues, operational challenges, or safety concerns to the Management Team.

Guest Experience & Sales

• Create memorable guest interactions by modeling service excellence and mentoring Team Members in customer engagement.

Safety & Compliance

• Enforce all safety policies and complete incident reports when necessary.
• Ensure all opening, closing, and shift procedures are executed with consistency and accuracy.
• Maintain cleanliness and operational readiness of the park throughout the shift.

• Lead facilities projects to elevate the guest experience and maintain a "best-in-class" look and feel.

Part-time Flex Lead (not available at all park locations)

Available primarily on weekends to help drive service and engagement.

• Prior supervisory or leadership experience.
• Background in retail sales, food & beverage, amusement/entertainment, or recreation strongly preferred.
• Basic proficiency with technology, including point-of-sale (POS) systems and tools like Microsoft Office Suite and Teams; comfortable learning new platforms as needed.
