　　Are you looking for a fun, rewarding job? The Akron Zoo has positions available within the Guest Services department. Seasonal employees receive discounts, flexible schedules, and the chance to make a real-world difference. Team members earn $12.00 an hour.

　　Below is a brief description of what we currently have open and are hiring for:

　　Food Service: Team members will be trained either in the back-of-house (efficiently prepare, cook, and serve food in a healthy, clean kitchen environment) or the front-of-house (operate a cash register, serve guests in a timely and friendly manner, maintain a clean and inviting frontline and dining room for our guests). Team members may also be responsible for preparing and overseeing catering events that occur in various outdoor and indoor locations throughout the zoo.

　　Gift Shop: Team members operate the cash register as well as help guests select products. Providing great guest experience is the number one priority but when there are no guests to engage housekeeping and stocking the sales floor are essential. Staff may be scheduled inside the gift shop or at our outside locations (Survival Cart; ScooterPals). Our outside location does not have air conditioning nor heat. Previous sales experience a plus, but not required.

　　Guest Experiences: Team members will staff Ticket Counter and operate our ride attractions, including the Conservation Carousel, A&K Wilbur / Considine Express (trackless trains), Immotion Virtual Reality and selling crackers to feed our goats at the Boma. Providing a great experience is expected in all locations and include tasks like accurately scanning tickets, selling general admission and special event tickets, selling membership and redeeming membership certificates, or operating rides safely and efficiently.
