Department Overview

Love great stories, great people, and a little bit of magic? ✨

At Warner Bros. Studio Tour, our Retail team brings the Wizarding World to life long after the cameras stop rolling - and we’re looking for friendly, energetic people to help make every visit unforgettable.

You’ll be right at the heart of the action, welcoming fans from all over the world and helping them take home a piece of their favourite story. From themed shops to exclusive merchandise, our retail spaces are where memory‑making meets magical moments.

Whether you’re studying, juggling other commitments, or simply looking for a fun and rewarding part‑time role, this is a great opportunity to work in a vibrant, inclusive environment where no two shifts are the same. You don’t need to be a Harry Potter expert (though it helps!) — just bring your enthusiasm, a positive attitude, and a passion for creating great experiences.

Here, teamwork matters, individuality is celebrated, and every shift is a chance to be part of something special. ⚡
