Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to be a skydiver to work in DZ operations?
No - manifest staff, customer service, and ground crew roles do not require any skydiving experience. Being enthusiastic about the sport and understanding basic skydiving operations helps significantly. Many people working in DZ operations start in other industries (hospitality, retail, admin) and transition because they love the environment.
What does a manifest operator do?
Manifest staff run the daily load schedule. They process student bookings, assign instructors and videographers to each tandem, track licensed jumper slots, call loads over the PA, coordinate weather holds with the pilot, and handle all customer queries. At busy DZs this is a fast-paced, high-pressure role managing dozens of people simultaneously.
What is a load organiser?
A load organiser (LO) is typically a licensed skydiver who coordinates formation skydiving groups and organises fun jumpers into loads. They may also conduct briefings, plan group exits, and ensure jumpers are matched by skill level. This is often a part-time or seasonal role, paid per load or per day.
