Job Description
CEC Entertainment, LLC, headquartered in Irving, Texas, is a nationally recognized leader in family dining and entertainment. The company proudly operates iconic brands such as Chuck E. Cheese, Peter Piper Pizza, and Chuck's Arcade, providing engaging experiences for families and children across nearly 600 Chuck E. Cheese locations and over 120 Peter Piper Pizza venues in 45 states and 18 countries. Established as a place where kids can be kids, CEC Entertainment is dedicated to creating joyful, lasting memories through its unique blend of fun, food, and play. The company emphasizes safety with initiatives like Kid Check and contributes to community welfare by donating millions to schools and nonprofits. The well-regarded employer has received accolades including the "Best in STEM" award and recognition as one of America’s Greatest Workplaces in 2025, reflecting its commitment to innovation and employee well-being.
As part of this vibrant enterprise, the Party Host role at Chuck E. Cheese offers an exciting opportunity to fuel joy and celebration in every event hosted in their family-friendly entertainment venues. This position suits individuals passionate about creating memorable birthday parties and engaging customer experiences. As a Party Host, you will be instrumental in setting up party areas by arranging tables and decorations, taking orders, ensuring guests’ needs are met, and most importantly, making the birthday child’s special day unforgettable. The company embraces a culture of cross-training, enabling Cast Members to rotate through various roles that enhance their skills and career prospects, with many managers having risen from within.
The role is attractive not only because of its dynamic work environment filled with games, laughs, and music but also due to the compelling commission structure. Commission earnings vary depending on the employment classification, with exempt employees earning commissions from $0.50 to $10.00 per Membership sold and $0.15 to $3.00 per Fun Pass sold; non-exempt employees receive between $2.00 and $8.00 per Membership and $0.60 to $2.40 per Fun Pass. These commissions are paid bi-weekly, offering early and regular incentives for performance. Moreover, Chuck E. Cheese supports flexible scheduling across various shifts, making it ideal for students or individuals seeking part-time or entry-level roles.
Candidates must meet age requirements, demonstrate an energetic and enthusiastic personality, and possess excellent customer service skills. The role also demands physical capability including the ability to lift objects up to 50 pounds and navigate the active, sometimes loud and fast-paced work environment. CEC Entertainment fosters a safe and inclusive workplace, providing reasonable accommodations to enable all employees to perform essential duties effectively. The company’s cutting-edge "Work Today, Get Paid Tomorrow" program ensures employees have access to their earned wages promptly, enhancing financial flexibility.
CEC Entertainment offers a competitive and comprehensive benefits package that supports all employees nationwide. Benefits include access to telemedicine, early wage access, 401(k) retirement plans, discounts on employee meals, tuition savings programs, scholarships for continuing education, and an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) for personal and financial support. Part-time team members may have options for fixed indemnity medical coverage, dental and vision plans, along with voluntary life and disability insurance. Full-time employees, averaging 29.5 plus hours per week, qualify for extensive medical, dental, vision, paid sick and vacation time, paid holidays, flexible spending account (FSA) and health savings account (HSA) options, legal coverage, voluntary benefits, and additional educational assistance including student loan support.
