We are looking for team members who share in this vision and bring an upbeat, positive mindset into our space.

The Makery is a unique program that offers play based, exciting experiences to people of all ages. Within our four play spaces, we offer:

- Move Lab (gross motor equipment and lots of space for games and big movements)
- Mess Lab (filled with art materials that can be used for process based art experiences and messy play. We also offer regular slime making activities.)
- Light Lab (glow light room that offers unique sensory experiences)

We are looking to add a Play Ambassador to our team that has experience working with children and loves planning exciting activities alongside the children.

This is a full time position during the **summer months**, with the **opportunity to help on other school closure days throughout the year as well, if available.**
