"As we move closer to the spring and summer seasons, it’s critical that we hire enough new employees to make sure that we’re able to provide great customer service and go above and beyond our guests’ expectations," said Nathan Smithson, Director of Marketing and Business Development at Pacific Park on the Santa Monica Pier.

"Pacific Park is one of Santa Monica’s largest youth employers and provides employees with a variety of opportunities including gaining valuable skills and training on the job all while working at the beach and oceanfront," Smithson said.

Pacific Park looks for fun, outgoing, energetic team members to work in different areas, including Scoops Ice Cream Shop and Beach Burger as well as rides, games, retail and security, among other roles.

Pacific Park offers five great reasons to work at the two-acre amusement park:

• Fun employee perks with free and discounted meals, free rides for employee and family, performance-based prizes such as free movie tickets and fun gifts, and a huge end-of-summer employee party.
• Flexible schedules great for employees who need to work nights and weekends to accommodate school schedules or as a second job.
• Paid training to gain real-life job skills.
• The Santa Monica Pier is easily accessible from the Metro Expo Line and Big Blue Bus.

Following written guidelines from the state, guests should expect new experiences including the option to purchase ride tickets online in advance of their visit, a single entrance to the ride area at the east side of the Park, and monitoring the number of people in the Park at one time.
