Job description

Weekend Manager — Thunderzone

Douglasville, GA Lead the fun. Own the weekend. Join a family that means it.

Thunderzone isn't just a job it's the best three days of everyone's week, and we need someone strong enough to run it. If you can walk into chaos and leave calm, coach a team through a packed Saturday night, and still crack a joke while doing it, we want to talk to you.

About Thunderzone

Thunderzone is a family-owned and operated entertainment destination featuring a bowling alley, arcade, two-story laser tag arena, and virtual rabbid experience. Our in-house bar, JR's, offers indoor and outdoor seating, billiards, darts, and cornhole. We're committed to giving friends and families a place to make lasting memories and that starts with a team that feels like family too.

This Is You

You handle every customer the same way thrilled or frustrated with patience, tact, and a smile that doesn't quit. You don't flinch when the floor is slammed and you're short-staffed, and you don't get lazy when it's slow. You catch details nobody else does, especially when it comes to payroll and cash handling. You communicate clearly, you lead from the floor, and you treat your team like family because at Thunderzone, that's exactly what they are.

The Schedule

This is a true weekend leadership role own it start to finish:

• Friday: ~2:00 PM – 1:00 AM
• Saturday: ~11:00 AM – 1:00 AM
• Sunday: ~11:00 AM – 11:00 PM (or until close)

Monday–Thursday are yours unless we need you to step in and cover for another manager or handle a business need. Hours may extend beyond the standard schedule based on staffing and business demands; flexibility is part of what makes this role — and this team — work.

Pay & Perks

• 2 weeks PTO, front-loaded after your first full year
• Free bowling with shoes, free laser tag
• Food & non-alcoholic drink discounts
• A genuinely fun, fast-paced, family-run environment where your work actually matters

What You'll Own

• Full command of daily operations across bowling, arcade, laser tag, VR, and JR's bar
• Every guest interaction solving problems before they become bigger ones
• Staffing: scheduling, coverage, interviewing, and onboarding
• Inventory oversight and enthusiastic promotion of sales and new offerings
• Cash handling and payroll accuracy, down to the last detail
• A clean, organized, guest-ready facility at all times
• Clear, fast communication with upper management when it matters

Qualifications

• Proven leadership ability and a track record of effective team management
• Exceptional customer service skills, with any type of clientele positive or negative
• Strong math and cash-handling skills
• Ability to stand for extended periods and lift boxes of supplies regularly
• Open availability for nights, weekends, and all major holidays we're open non-negotiable
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
• Confident, decisive, fair, and open to suggestions
• Team-oriented, with a passion for coaching and mentoring
• Calm and effective under pressure from a packed house to a quiet night
• Highly organized, detail-oriented, and strong at prioritizing and delegating

Bottom Line

We're not looking for someone to babysit the building. We're looking for a leader who can hold it down through the busiest hours of the week, keep the team steady, keep the guests happy, and keep the details tight no matter what walks through the door.
