What is a fun manager?

Fun Managers are professionals responsible for creating and organizing enjoyable activities and events within a company or organization. Their main goal is to boost employee morale, foster team building, and enhance workplace culture by planning social events, games, and celebrations. Fun Managers often work closely with human resources and leadership teams to ensure activities align with the company's values and engage all employees. Their role can vary from organizing small in-office events to planning large corporate retreats or themed parties.

What skills and qualifications are needed to be a fun manager?

To thrive as a Fun Manager, you need strong event planning, organizational, and leadership skills, often supported by experience in hospitality, recreation, or HR. Familiarity with event management software, budgeting tools, and communication platforms is typically required. Creativity, enthusiasm, and excellent interpersonal skills help you engage teams and foster a positive workplace culture. These abilities ensure successful execution of morale-boosting activities that enhance employee satisfaction and retention.

How does a fun manager collaborate with other departments to enhance workplace culture?

A Fun Manager often works closely with HR, team leaders, and company leadership to understand employee engagement needs and design activities that align with organizational goals. They coordinate logistics, communicate event details, and gather feedback to ensure initiatives are inclusive and effective. Regular collaboration ensures that events are well-attended, reflect diverse interests, and contribute positively to workplace morale and team cohesion.

Job description

Are you searching for some good, clean fun? We've got the job for you!
We're looking for someone who loves kids, is super energetic, and who wants to make a positive impact on the families in their community. This person will help us deliver on the promise of Serious Fun with serious health and safety in mind. If you think you might be a good fit for our fun and fast paced environment, then keep reading!
What we expect from you
  • Teach amazing classes based on our proven curriculum and teaching method (don't worry, we'll teach you how!)
  • Provide an outstanding customer service experience. We treat our members like family!
  • So fresh and so clean, clean! It's important that we work to keep our gym and lobby area cleaned and disinfected at all times.
  • Party like a Rockstar...errr HOST a party like a Rockstar and hang 'late night' (or like 6-10pm, but who's counting?) with awesome kids while their parents get some much needed 'adult time'.

You'd fit in here if
  • You're totally open to being a goofball and love celebrating kid's success. (A background in child development, physical education, gymnastics or dance helps as well.)
  • You live to serve! Making others feel good makes you feel good.
  • Kids really like you, but their parents really like you too.
  • You were voted most likely to be in a good mood by your high school classmates.
  • You love to have fun but you know when to buckle down and do work.

You may think we're awesome because
  • Kids walk out of our classes more confident than when they walked in.
  • You'll get your steps in and close your activity rings while you work because you'll be moving all day.
  • We get to build relationships with kids and their families and those relationships last a lifetime!
  • You could get paid to fold t-shirts or you could get paid to act like a dinosaur. The choice is yours.
  • This may not be your career but we're sure going to train you like it is.

But seriously, read the fine print
With more than 300 locations across the globe, The Little Gym is the world's premier enrichment and physical development center for kids ages 4 months through 12 years.

Compensation: $16.50 per hour
