Job Description

Urban Air Adventure Parks is a Dallas-based entertainment company recognized as the preeminent indoor adventure park and the market leader in location-based entertainment. The company pioneered the adventure park concept and currently operates as the largest adventure park operator in the world. Urban Air's mission centers on helping kids have fun and encouraging them to aim higher, achieving goals they might have previously thought unattainable. With locations across the country, Urban Air focuses on creating thrilling, family-friendly environments where guests enjoy a variety of physical activities and attractions designed to engage and inspire. The vibrant, active culture at Urban Air reflects its motto of "Activating Awesome," which is embedded in all aspects of the business, from guest experience to staff development and community engagement.

The role of Manager at Urban Air Adventure Park is a leadership position tailored for a highly-motivated individual who is passionate about fostering exceptional customer experiences while driving operational success. This role goes beyond traditional management duties, serving as a key driver in maintaining the culture and values of the brand. The Manager is tasked with motivating the team, instilling accountability, and ensuring that daily operations align with the company’s goals and standards of excellence. In addition to overseeing entertainment, food, beverage, attractions, and property inspections, the Manager plays a critical role in staff development, coaching, and retention, ensuring an energized and professional team that consistently delivers memorable experiences.

Beyond operational leadership, this position emphasizes strategic initiatives that positively impact business results. The Manager will cultivate a team environment that prioritizes safety, cleanliness, and guest satisfaction while also managing schedules to maintain proper staffing and lead coverage that maximizes the customer’s experience. Furthermore, the Manager is instrumental in executing employee recognition and incentive programs that boost team morale and engagement. Working at Urban Air requires flexibility, as the role involves working weekends, evenings, and holidays, demanding a commitment to supporting the business even when others are off.

The ideal candidate will be a professional with strong communication and interpersonal skills, adept in Microsoft Office applications, and capable of fostering a positive work environment that balances fun and seriousness. This role requires someone who can lead by example, demonstrating professional grooming, excellent judgment, and a willingness to learn and adapt to challenges. The Manager must also be a brand ambassador and culture champion, ensuring that team members align with the company's vision and values. Physical stamina is essential due to the fast-paced, often noisy work environment, long periods of standing, and the need to lift and carry up to 30 pounds.
