It is with pleasure that I announce that we have arrived at the time of year where we will be commencing our Football Finals staff recruitment sessions.
Any interested applicants are encouraged to apply by forwarding a summary of skills and a brief cover letter by email to [email protected]
We cover football finals at a range of venues including Gippsland, Latrobe Valley, West Gippsalnd, Mornington Peninsula, South Eastern Suburbs, Yarra Valley, Sunbury and Ballarat Zones.
On the job training is provided for all staff, while those that would be more comfortable having completed a 2 hour training session will also be given the opportunity to be paired with one of our very experienced existing Home and Away Sellers, who work at a range of venues each week servicing 30 or so clubs in our existing client base.
In order to be an effective seller the following skills are required.
- Clear communication skills
- Ability to work under pressure as there’s quite often lines of customers we are dealing with
- The ability to follow policy and make a quick decision to ensure that those people that should pay do, and that all patrons attending an event are recorded and provided with an entry ticket.
- Cash handling skills are an advantage, however these days 80% or so of our transactions are by EFT using our square terminals.
- Have access to a phone with mobile data and a good battery stability – as all terminals are linked to your phones.
- Be reliable, well presented and a team player.
- Be happy to work in with the travel arrangements including driving now and then with other staff.
Most of our finals shifts are around the 8 hour range. Generally, we’d be leaving Moe at around 6am during this time and you’d expect to be getting back home at around 6pm.
A busy day on a footy and netball gate is rewarding and enjoyable, and while you have the occasional challenge all in all most customers are great to deal with, especially now that so many clubs utilise our services and know that we run a strict ticket or pay service that they are familiar with.
