A fun, supportive workplace with great team culture and exciting opportunities to grow.
The good thingsWorking at The Big Banana Fun Park is genuinely enjoyable, no two days are the same. The team culture is a standout, with supportive Board and Management team and a strong sense of camaraderie across departments. There are plenty of opportunities to develop new skills, whether in customer service, operations or attractions, and the environment is fast-paced and engaging. It’s also rewarding to be part of an iconic destination that brings joy to so many visitors every day.
The challengesLike any tourism business, it can get very busy during peak periods and holidays, which requires flexibility and the ability to stay calm under pressure. The pace can be demanding at times, but it’s also what makes the role exciting and dynamic.

A fun park that is not fun to be working at.
The good thingsThe staff that are at the attractions, Cafe and gift shop make it a nice working environment
The challengesThere staff are unhappy, it is a mirco managed environment, long hours, no recognition for hard work, jobs advertised are not what they are and it the most stressful and unhappy working environment. Minimal marketing it is a ticket office role you sell tickets and are expected to do marketing whilst serving customers all day.
CEOThank you for your feedback. We’re pleased you valued the team environment across the Park, we agree this is a key strength of our business.
We acknowledge your comments regarding the challenges experienced. At the time, the business was in a growth phase, which required greater flexibility across roles to ensure coverage, particularly during quieter periods. This meant some team members supported broader functions, to ensure that customer service levels were kept to a high standard.
Since then, we have continued to refine roles, improve resourcing, and strengthen communication and recognition across the team. We appreciate your input and wish you all the best for your future endeavours.
