We’re currently seeking new, talented Costume Character Entertainers with a flair for getting into character, as we introduce Peppa Pig to SEA LIFE Blackpool!
Peppa, her family and best friend Suzy Sheep are off to have an amazing Aquarium Adventure and we need your help to create squeals of laughter for our visitors.

- We are looking for candidates that are between the height of 5'3" to 5'5"
- Available to work full-time including weekends and bank holidays
You will need a flexible approach to the role you play and the hours you work, and naturally bring a positive, upbeat and team spirited personality.
We’re looking for entertainers who can dress and act the part as Peppa Pig. From activity trails to interactive muddy puddles to theming throughout the attraction, you’re sure to be immersed into the world of Peppa Pig.
You will plot out and play the character and interact as them throughout the attraction, being a key presence. Having your designated space for photo opportunities, you’ll also meet some incredible creatures and discover how to keep them safe in our oceans. Costume and training will be provided!
Contracted for 3 months starting from March, you’ll be working full-time hours. Flexibility is essential as times and days of shifts will vary.
What’s in it for you
Alongside becoming an expert in spreading joy, you’ll also receive:
