As an axe throwing coach (Axepert) your job is to teach and guide a fun and competitive environment. You will teach and ensure each player is able to throw and land axes. As long as you are observant and attentive to each customer the throwing is fairly simple to learn and then teach. You do not need to be an amazing thrower to be a good teacher. At times you will be required to assist more than one party at times up to 24 customers at once. You will need to multitask and think on your feet and accommodate walk-ins but we are reservation based.This position does come with heavy lifting and can be physically demanding while in a high paced environment.

Responsibilities for Escape rooms:

- Prep and reset room for each group.
- Great customer service, ability to explain rules in a clear and entertaining way, able to handle inexperienced customers.
- Stick to a script while also personalizing the experience to the customers and your personality.
- Ensure customers are interacting with the room safely.
- Maintain puzzles and props fixing things when they become broken.

As an Escape Room Actor your job is to entertain and assist customers. Unlike other escape rooms we are physically in the room with customers pushing along a story line. While in the room you ensure the safety of our customers but also the safety of our props and puzzles. You will need to think on your feet at times when they need hints or clues on certain puzzles. It is essential to give each group the same experience but working with their level of puzzle solving skills.

These roles are in tandem with one another and all employees are required to do both. We do our best to split axe shows and escape rooms equally between employees.

The only other requirement is taking care of weekly and daily tasks that involve cleaning and maintenance. Some limited cash handling with our Point of sale computer and use of our office computer.
