The Pleasure Beach in Blackpool is holding general recruitment days next month to fill 500 seasonal jobs.

As well as recruiting staff to operate major rides such as the Pepsi Max Big One, it has posts in retail, ticket sales, arcades, telesales and catering staff. It is also seeking chefs, kitchen staff and room attendants for The Big Blue Hotel.

People who secure positions at the Pleasure Beach can look forward to a package of benefits that includes free unlimited rides, complimentary show tickets and an employee social club with a subsidised bar.

The recruitment days will be held on 3 and 4 February in the Paradise Room at the Pleasure Beach.

The organisation said it encouraged diversity in its recruitment process and welcomed “all different kinds of people”, including students and mature applicants.
