AddressEver wondered if the perfect job exists? Well, read on an you may just find your answer.
We’re Whistle Punks and we’re all about people, well people and axes...!
Do our 5-star reviews rave about the quality of our wood or how lovely our axes are? Nope. It’s all about our team, our people, our Punks. They make the experience. They create the magic. Wanna join them?
We brought urban axe throwing to the UK back in 2016 and, ever since, we have been at the top of our game in the hugely popular competitive socialising scene.
In that time our guests have thrown over 10 million axes. All those throws add up to an axe travelling all the way around the world!
We now have venues in Bristol, Leeds, London and Manchester with plans for more in the future. We’ve grown from 5 to a team of over a 100!
Our mission is to provide an unforgettable experience to anyone setting foot in our venues. Our success is a direct result of the fantastic team already in place and we now need more awesome humans to add to the mix.
We’re about treating people well and doing business for good. Sound like something you’re into? We’d love to hear from you.
