Requirements

What we're looking for

At Acttiv, we don't ask for superpowers (although, if you have them, they are welcome). However, we would like you to have:
• Experience as an entertainer for at least one season
• A good level of Spanish and English (at least B2). French, German, Dutch... and any other language is a plus
• Training: a specific degree is not necessary, but we positively value studies in entertainment, early childhood education, sports, or dance
• Minimum availability of 6 months from your start date

In addition to those requirements, you are the person we are looking for if:
• Your character is extroverted
• Shyness is not your thing
• You consider that you adapt well to new situations
• You like working in a team

Nice to have

But wait: do you want to be an entertainer and have no experience? We'll give you a hand! At Acttiv we offer our own introductory courses in tourist entertainment. And here's the thing: we don't just prepare you for the job—if you pass the course, we at Acttiv commit to hiring you. Take a look!

The role

Why travel far looking for paradise when you can go to the Canary Islands? This archipelago has it all: eternal summer, fantastic beaches, and enormous natural wealth.

If you want to live and work in "the fortunate islands," you are in luck. At Acttiv, we are looking to bring versatile, energetic, and adventurous people into our entertainment teams in Fuerteventura, Gran Canaria, Tenerife, and Lanzarote. But this is not a job for everyone: you must be all-terrain, dare to take on all kinds of activities, and know the ins and outs of entertainment. Is that you? Then this offer is for you!

What you'll do

As a multipurpose entertainer, you will be responsible for:
• Organizing children's games for all ages, from the youngest in the miniclub (3 to 8 years old) to those in the maxi club (9 to 12 years old) and even the teens (from 12 years old onwards)
• Running activities from the adult program: sports, games such as bingo or a quiz, or craft workshops, among others
• Dancing with the children at the minidisco
• Participating in nightly entertainment shows
• Being able to speak to the public with a microphone in front of you
• Interacting with guests and promoting the day's activities
• Taking care of the material necessary for all activities
• Obtaining positive feedback to improve the establishment's online reputation

And breathe easy: you will have the support of the entertainment manager at all times, who is responsible for the team and the person in charge of guiding you in your tasks. This way, you will ensure that the quality standards of both the hotel and Acttiv are met.
