Job Description

Description:

Circuit of The Americas (COTA) is a 365-entertainment destination for world-class events located in Austin, TX. The sports and entertainment portfolio at COTA is unmatched in the country with Formula 1 US Grand Prix, NASCAR and MotoGP attracting global fans during championship races on the famed Circuit and Live Nation producing over 30 headline concerts every year at the Germania Insurance Amphitheater. COTALAND is an amusement park with over 30 attractions and experiences, including first-of-their-kind roller coasters.

We're gearing up to hire our initial teams of Grand Opening CREW Members who will help shape how COTALAND runs before the gates ever open. You'll commission rides, prepare kitchens, set up dining rooms and retail stores, stock inventory, run practice scenarios, and help influence the operation and standards that every CREW Member after you will follow.

Along the way, you'll also receive training and development opportunities in guest experience, training others, and understanding how your role connects and supports the overall operation. When the park opens, you won't just be ready. You'll be the crew that helps everyone else get ready.

At COTALAND, we're creating more than a theme park, we're creating memorable experiences for every guest who walks through our gates.

Whether you're serving a meal, operating an attraction, greeting guests as they arrive, or helping keep the park clean and beautiful, every Crew Member plays an important role in creating unforgettable experiences.
