Search is on for Dobbies Santa

The garden centre retailer is looking for people who love the spirit of Christmas to bring the magic of the season to life for customers of all ages.

As well as working in the grotto, Santa will also meet with family groups at Dobbies’ festive breakfast and party events.

The safety of customers and team members is Dobbies’ number one priority so the grotto experience will be different this year, as Santa and the elves will be adhering to social distancing guidelines.

A spokesperson for Dobbies said: “At Dobbies we’re proud to deliver memorable Christmas experiences. The role of Santa is perfect for enthusiastic individuals who are keen to ensure our customers have a first-class experience and get everyone into the festive spirit.

“We will be closely following Government guidelines to ensure all events from our Christmas programme are safe and enjoyable for all.”

Applicants are invited for the roles of Santa and elves with a full training programme provided for those who are successful.

Dobbies is looking for reliable, hard-working individuals who are confident, kind and have a jolly nature.

From regaling stories from the North Pole and asking children about their Christmas list, candidates will spread happiness and capture the imagination of children of all ages.
