Fancy doing something completely different this summer? Why not join one of our balloon crews, which fly from over 30 locations in the South East of England. Adventure Balloons operating bases are situated in Hartley Wintney and Hemel Hempstead and cover all of our passenger balloon flights in Surrey, Oxford, Berkshire and London.
To become a part of the balloon crew, you must be happy working outdoors, be physically fit and have good communication skills. Training is provided, but it would be helpful if you had competence with driving 4X4’s with trailers and Minibuses and have basic map reading skills; applicants must be over 25 and have 3 years clean license.
The balloon season generally runs from April to October depending on the weather, and there will be opportunities for employment throughout the balloon season. Applicant must be reliable and able to work on weekends and on occasions weekday evenings.
There will be a fixed weekly rate for balloon crew work plus a bonus scheme and there is also additional hurly paid work for promotional and support work. To apply for a role on one of our balloon crews, send you C.V. to: sales@adventureballoons.co.uk
