About Acttiv

At Acttiv we care about people. We are committed to creating talented teams that we train on an ongoing basis to put into practice innovative, surprising and quality leisure programmes in hotels and campsites. We have a common goal: to provide guests with a holiday full of incredible experiences. At Acttiv we take fun very seriously!

Job description

It is very likely that when someone says «Catalonia» you immediately think of Barcelona, but this community is much more than its capital. Bathed by the Mediterranean, Catalonia has beaches, mountains, Modernism and a charm that creates passions.

A destination like this requires people who are all-rounders. That’s why Acttiv is looking for an all-round entertainer who can do it all. If you are versatile, energetic and adventurous, join our team!

As an allround entertainer, you will be responsible for:
• Organising children’s games for all ages, from the mini-club (3 to 8 years old) to the maxi-club (9 to 12 years old) and even teens (from 12 years old).
• Implementing activities of the adult programme: sports, games such as bingo or a quiz, or handicraft workshops, among others.
• Dancing with the children at the mini-disco
• Participating in the nightly entertainment shows
• Being able to speak to an audience with a microphone in front of you.
• Liaising with guests and promoting the day’s activities
• Taking care of the equipment necessary for all activities

But don’t worry, you won’t be alone. At all times you will have the support of the head of entertainment and the coordinator in the area, they will guide you in your tasks. Together with them and your colleagues, you will ensure that the quality standards of both the hotel and Acttiv are met.

What are we asking for?

You don’t have to be an Olympic champion or an Oscar winner to join our team. All we need is:
• Experience as an entertainer for at least one season
• A good level of Spanish and English (at least B2). French, Catalan, Dutch… and any other language is a plus.
• Education: no specific qualification is required, but we value studies in entertainment, children’s education, sport or dance as an asset.
• Availability: May – October 2024

In addition to these requirements, you will be the right person if:
• You are an all-rounder
• You have a lot of energy
• You like to work in a team
• You are flexible and like new challenges

What if you have no experience? Well, we’ll train you! At Acttiv we offer our own courses of initiation to tourist entertainment, perfect for those who want to start in the sector. And do you know why? Because not only do we prepare you to be the best entertainer, but we are also committed to hiring you if you pass the course. Sign up for the next course!
