LOOKING for a job where you get paid to bounce around a huge inflatable theme park?

Inflata Nation Cheshire is set to open in Runcorn next month and is hoping to recruit 35 new members of staff.

And perks of the job include being able to test the giant inflatable assault course out for an hour every day before it is opened to members of the public.

Obstacles in the 20,000sq ft warehouse will include giant slide and ball pools, a Gladiators-style jousting arena and a climbing wall.

Designed for both adults and children to use, Inflata Nation Cheshire will also boast a huge air pillow and the UK’s first dual drop slide in which friends race against one another down a giant inflatable slope.

Meanwhile, the Inflata Challenge will see contestants sprint up an inflatable runway while attached to a bungee cord in a bid to shoot a ball through a basketball hoop.

Director Michelle Ball said: “We want enthusiastic and personable staff that can demonstrate great customer service and an eagerness to work hard.

“Each morning as part of the arena health check they will have to bounce around with the arena all to themselves to test it – not many people get that chance.”

The new facility will replace Jump Nation on Shaw Street in the town, with its 140 wall-to-wall trampolines set to be removed and replaced with inflatables in a major refurbishment costing £500,000.

Inflata Nation Cheshire will be the second attraction of its kind in the UK, with the first in Manchester having attracted more than 100,000 visitors since it opened in October.

Co-owner Matt Ball added: “This is an exciting new venture for Inflata Nation and we are really looking forward to welcoming a host of customers, old and new, to try out the Cheshire centre.

“After setting up the UK’s first inflatable theme park in Manchester, we are once again pushing the boundaries with a host of attractions that will see the Runcorn site provide a huge amount of enjoyment.

“The new staff will become part of the Inflata Nation family and have great fun working with us.”

Anyone interesting in working at Inflata Nation Cheshire should email their CV to jobs@inflatanation.com by Monday, March 26.

Shortlisted candidates will be invited to attend recruitment days on March 27, 28 and 29.
