You could also be working with school visits, self-guided tours and workshops for schools and you may also find yourself dressing up in costume or assisting the site displays team with animal feeds.

 

Whatever the role, you will find yourself helping customers as they make their way throughout the attraction, ensuring our guests have an intimate Ocean experience.

 

These are seasonal, fixed term positions. Contracts will run through to early November 2026. Shifts can include weekends, bank holidays and peak holiday seasons.
