About the role
The City of Farmington Parks and Recreation department is hiring a seasonal Arena Supervisor for its ice arena on 3rd Street in Farmington, Minnesota. The supervisor runs the building through each shift and takes charge as Supervisor on Duty when no full-time staff are in.
A shift covers opening or closing the arena, driving the ice resurfacer, and running the arena office, where skates are sharpened and tape, laces, and other supplies are sold. The supervisor also helps oversee the skate guards during public skating and enforces the arena rules.
There is cleaning on every shift: restrooms and common areas get restocked, and floors, hallways, and locker rooms are swept and mopped. The end-of-shift clean sets the building up for the next day.
Pay is $17.08 to $18.32 an hour. The city notes that it is running a classification and pay study, and any changes from it are expected around January 1, 2027. The posting opened on November 12 and closes on December 15, 2026.
