Job Description
About the Role
The Inflatable Water Park Attendant is the front‐line guardian of fun and safety at Manapogo’s inflatable water park on Lake Pleasant. This role blends guest interaction, safety monitoring, and hands‐on support to ensure every visitor has a safe, memorable, and magical experience on the water.
You’ll oversee the floating obstacle course, swim deck, kayaks, paddle boards, paddle boats, and designated beach area. You are not a lifeguard — but you are the eyes, ears, and friendly authority figure who keeps the area running smoothly.
