Employment opportunities

“Our recruitment needs change depending on the time of year. We begin advertising for our busy season in April,” says Kelly Feehan, Executive Assistant to the General Manager, and HR Recruiter. “Because we have so many different lines of business, we have many different positions to fill.

“One of the biggest positions for the summer is Racetrack Parimutuel Seller, who sells tickets during live racing. This is an entry-level job, which would suit someone who can work in a fast-paced environment and has some experience handling money.

“There is also a beverage section, where we need Hosts, Servers, Bartenders, Cooks, Dishwashers, Food and Beverage Supervisors.

“We are open year-round, but many of these positions are casual or part-time during the off-season. We get a lot busier in the summer.”
