Serious Fun In the business of spreading smiles, we take the job of making fun very seriously. When selecting new franchisees, we take great care to make sure that we – and you – feel you’re absolutely right for the business. We’re going to be partners for 10 years, so it’s important we get it right. This is a people business. So one of the most important qualities you’ll need is the ability to connect with people. You’ll not only be responsible for developing your staff, you’ll also be the sort of person who enjoys meeting customers and going out into the local community.

The first stage in the selection process is to complete the enclosed application form and return it to our business development team. If we think you’ve got potential, we’ll invite you to meet us. If we’re both still interested, you’ll be asked to spend five days working in a Fun City, so you can find out what it’s like. If this goes well, you’ll come to a final meeting with the selection panel. If we both feel 100% sure that a Fun City franchise is right for you, training can begin as soon as you’re ready.
