General Manager - Historic Manitou Springs Penny Arcade

Background For generations, the Historic Manitou Springs Penny Arcade has been the most popular downtown venue in our mountain town located at the base of Pikes Peak, just 6 miles from America's 40th largest city, Colorado Springs. Our eight-building venue features 400+ coin-operated video, pinball, and mechanical machines, some more than a century old. We also have pool tables, kiddie-rides, photo booths, skee-ball, and our world famous 12-horse race Derby game manufactured in England. Each year more than 150,000 families, travelers, and locals enjoy the nostalgic charm, the sound of bells and chimes, and simple old-fashioned fun. Walking through the doors is like stepping into another era —with memories made one quarter, dime, or sometimes just a penny at a time. We have plans to add many new and refurbished games, a snack bar, a small retail venue as well as an events area suitable for private celebrations. We currently employ about a dozen people year round, along with about 25 additional seasonal employees during our busy Summer months. We seek someone who has a proven track record of motivating and training employees, fostering creativity and accountability without chaos, and can guide a team with clarity and consistency.
