Santa Claus

SANTA CLAUS WANTED IN ROVANIEMI CITY CENTRE – JOIN SANTA CLAUS CITY OFFICE!

Would you like to bring joy and create unforgettable moments as Santa Claus? Santa Claus City Office is looking for a Santa Claus performer at Lordi Square in the heart of Rovaniemi for the season from 1 November 2026 to 31 March 2027.

SHIFTS AND EARNING OPPORTUNITIES Evening shifts are available every day from 4 pm to 9 pm or 10 pm. Morning shifts are also available on Saturdays and Sundays.

Ideally, we would like to find someone who can work plenty of shifts. For the right person, we offer good pay and the opportunity to make this a full-time job for the season.

However, shifts can also be shared among several Santa performers as a team, just as we did last year. You do not need to be available for every shift – a few shifts a week or occasional cover would also be a valuable help. You can combine this role with another job and start with a few shifts to get to know the work.

Please feel free to apply and tell us what availability would suit you. Lets see how we can arrange the shifts together!

WHAT IS THE WORK LIKE? Being Santa is all about warm welcomes and creating happy moments. You will meet children and adults from around the world, chat with them and become part of their Christmas memories.

This is a cheerful, people-focused role where you can bring your own personality and sense of humour. We value a relaxed, positive atmosphere where both our team and our visitors feel welcome.

WHO ARE WE LOOKING FOR? We are looking for a warm, calm and friendly person with a customer service mindset who feels comfortable stepping into the role of Santa Claus. We value a convincing Santa presence, life experience and the ability to connect with both children and adults.

Basic conversational English is enough – you do not need perfect grammar or fluent English. Most of our visitors are not native English speakers either, so basic English and a willingness to chat will take you a long way. Any additional language skills are a bonus!

International and English-speaking applicants are warmly welcome. Previous experience is not essential, as we provide training. Training will begin soon, and we will agree on your starting date with you.

LOCATION Santa Claus City Office, Lordi Square, Rovaniemi, Finland. You will work in a warm Santas cabin brought to the square for the season.

HOW TO APPLY Send us a short introduction about yourself by email. Tell us why you would suit the role of Santa Claus, how much work you are looking for and when you could start training. Please also describe your language skills and your availability for evening shifts and weekend morning and evening shifts.

We would love to hear from you!
