According to Jon Anderson, Knoebels’ Human Resources Director, the company is excited to be able to offer a competitive wage for both new and returning team members.
“The majority of team members joining us for our 90th anniversary season can expect their starting hourly rate to be above minimum wage,” said Anderson. “Specific pay rates vary upon job function, and team members can qualify for a raise each returning season, as well as a number of other perks.”
In addition to a regular paycheck, Knoebels offers other added benefits for team members such as exclusive employee events, a park exchange program which allows employees to visit a number of other parks free of charge, and tickets and food coupons for select weeks. School aged team members are also encouraged to apply for Knoebels’ scholarship program.
“We have a wide variety of job types available, the majority of which interact directly with our customers,” added Anderson. “So we’re looking forward to hiring team members with a positive, upbeat personality, who can help us ensure our customers are absolutely enjoying their visit to Knoebels.”
While Knoebels is primarily seeking team members aged 16 and older, there are a limited number of positions available for workers aged 14 and 15. School aged workers are required to have working papers when hired.
