Knott’s Berry Farm has announced a plan to hire approximately 1,700 employees for the 2021 season. As social distancing restrictions begin to lessen, theme parks such as Knott’s are planning to reopen. Part of that plan includes ramping up employment to fill much-needed positions.

Currently, job opportunities are available in all of Knott’s Berry Farm’s operating areas. These areas include Food and Beverage Associates, Cooks, Ride Operators, Merchandise, Lifeguards, Housekeeping, Parks Services, and more.

 “As our community slowly reopens we’re excited to introduce a virtual hiring day which offers a safe and informative way to connect new prospects with our hiring teams now,” said Jon Storbeck, Knott’s Berry Farm General Manager.

Knott’s Berry Farm offers flexible schedules and several perks for its associates including discounts, reward and recognition programs, and exclusive events.
