Job Description
Casual Game Host and Front of House Team Member
n
Escape Smash Play is an entertainment venue in South Geelong. Three escape rooms, three axe throwing lanes, two smash rooms.
n
It gets loud in here. People come to throw axes, take a sledgehammer to an old printer, and drag their mates through a haunted house. On a busy Saturday everything is running at once.
n
You are in the middle of all of it. Teaching someone to throw. Fixing a set of jammed handcuffs in a prison cell before the next group walks in. Watching a team crack the last clue in the Haunted House and hearing them lose it.

What the shift actually looks like
n
You will often be running the venue on your own. That means a group throwing axes, a group in a smash room and a group locked in an escape room, all at different points in their session, while the phone goes and someone walks in wanting to book for Saturday.
n
Something is always broken or about to be. Props fail, magnets stick, handcuffs jam. You fix it between groups and keep moving. If that sounds like a positive day rather than a stressful one, keep reading.

Flexible availability is essential. Regular shifts are available, but things can change at any time. Shifts can fall on any day of the week, so the broader your availability the better. Hours step up over school holidays and the Christmas period, so if that is when you want more work, it is there.
