About Acttiv

At Acttiv we have been working for 20 years to make people’s holidays unforgettable with innovative leisure programmes in hotels and campsites. A mission that we achieve thanks to the talent of all those who form part of our teams, whom we train on an ongoing basis, offering them a career in the world of tourist entertainment.

Job description

Why travel far in search of paradise when you can go to the Canary Islands? This archipelago has it all: eternal summer, fantastic beaches, and a vast wealth in nature.

If you want to live and work in the “lucky islands,” you’re in luck. At Acttiv, we are looking to hire an itinerant entertainer to strengthen our entertainment teams in Fuerteventura, Gran Canaria, Tenerife, and Lanzarote.

This position is designed for people with experience in tourist entertainment, who are able to quickly adapt to different teams and entertainment programs. Your mission will be to cover specific team needs, such as sick leave, operational reinforcements, or temporary replacements in any of our hotels in the Canary Islands.

Your base accommodation will be in Gran Canaria, from where you will travel to the different hotels whenever necessary. Acttiv will organize and cover the transportation to the destination where you need to provide support.

However, this position is not for everyone: we are looking for a versatile, all-round person with comprehensive entertainment skills and the ability to work across different areas of the program, from miniclub activities to team coordination when required.

As an itinerant entertainer, you will be responsible for performing the duties corresponding to the position you are covering.

And don’t worry: you will always have the support of the area coordinator, who will accompany and guide you in your tasks to ensure that the quality standards of both the hotel and Acttiv are met.

What are we asking for?

At Acttiv, we are not looking for superheroes, but for people with energy, attitude, and a passion for entertainment.

For this position, it is important that you have:

  • Previous experience as a tourist entertainer (minimum of two seasons)

  • The ability to adapt to different hotels, teams, and entertainment programs

  • A good level of Spanish and English (minimum B2)

  • Other languages such as French, German, or Dutch will be a plus

  • Availability to travel between islands when necessary

You will also be a great fit for this position if you:

  • Your character is outgoing

  • You feel comfortable speaking in front of groups of people

  • You feel that you adapt well to new situations

  • You like to work in a team

  • You are motivated by dynamic environments and new challenges

What do we offer?

As an itinerant Entertainer at Acttiv, you will enjoy the following conditions:

  • Base accommodation in Gran Canaria. A total of €178,26 net per month will be deducted from your salary to pay expenses.

  • Transfers paid by Acttiv when you need to cover positions in other hotels or islands.

  • Meals included in the staff dining room when working at the hotel.

  • Between 1.5 and 2 days off per week.

  • Acttiv Contract: permanent seasonal

  • Social Security

  • Mutual insurance for accidents at work and civil liability insurance (during working hours).

  • 30 (calendar) days’ holiday per year worked

  • Help with registration in the Spanish contribution system.

Additionally:

  • You will receive an additional financial incentive when temporarily covering positions with greater responsibility, such as Chief Entertainer.

But at Acttiv, there is something even more important than the conditions: growth opportunities.

To give you an idea:

  • 65% of the office staff were previously entertainers.

  • 79% of the Heads of Entertainment in the Canary Islands have grown within Acttiv.

If you join our team, you will enjoy a top working environment, solid future prospects and extras such as:
• Continuous training in different subjects related to the world of tourist entertainment and the brand’s commitment to innovation.
