The posting

Our story began 75 years ago when the Herschend family discovered wonder deep in an Ozark Mountain cave—and chose to share it with the world. Today, Herschend is the largest family-held themed attractions company, with 49 leading attractions and immersive experiences that reach audiences worldwide.

While each brand offers something unique, all are united by a shared purpose: Bringing Families Closer Together by Creating Memories Worth Repeating®.

The Ride Operations Senior Supervisor will assist in the supervision of the Rides Hosts working throughout the amusement park. This position directly supports park leadership with efficient operation of the department, which provides a positive guest experience.
