If you want the perks of being a Disney Cast Member (like free park access!) but the idea of wearing a costume and smiling at thousands of tourists all day sounds exhausting, this might be the perfect fit.
Walt Disney World is currently hiring for Part-Time Supply & Distribution Workers.
Basically, this is the team that keeps the magic running. Without these workers, the hotels don’t get fresh towels, the restaurants don’t get food, and the gift shops don’t get Mickey ears. It’s a warehouse and logistics role, but it comes with that famous Disney ID badge.
The Quick Details
Here is the snapshot of what you need to know:
| What to Know | The Details |
| Location | Lake Buena Vista / Orlando, FL |
| The Company | Walt Disney World Resort |
| The Role | Supply & Distribution Worker |
| Type | Part-Time (Requires full availability for 3 days) |
| Main Perk | Free Theme Park Admission |
What You Would Actually Do
You aren’t dealing with guests directly. You are working “backstage” in the warehouses and distribution centers across the property.
- Heavy Lifting: This is a physical job. You’ll be loading and unloading trucks, moving pallets, and stocking shelves.
- Driving: You’ll likely be operating forklifts, pallet jacks, and sometimes driving delivery trucks to different resorts or parks.
- The Goods: You could be handling anything—from frozen food for the restaurants to giant props for a show, or thousands of plush toys.
- Technology: You’ll use handheld scanners to track inventory (just like at Amazon or Walmart, but with more pixie dust).
Why Is This a Sweet Gig?
Let’s be honest: people take this job for the perks.
- Park Admission: As a Cast Member, you get a Main Entrance Pass. This means you (and usually a set number of guests) can go to Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, and Animal Kingdom for free.
- Discounts: You get discounts on merchandise, food, and even Disney resort hotels.
- The Culture: You get access to “Cast Exclusive” areas, holiday parties, and sneak peeks of new attractions before the public sees them.
Do You Qualify?
Disney has high standards, even for warehouse roles.
The Requirements:
- Driver’s License: You almost always need a valid Florida Driver’s License because you might be driving company vehicles.
- Physical Strength: You need to be able to lift heavy items (usually up to 50-70 lbs) repeatedly.
- The Schedule: “Part-Time” at Disney doesn’t mean “work whenever you want.” You typically need full availability for at least 3 days a week, including weekends and holidays. The parks never close, so the warehouse doesn’t either.
- The “Disney Look”: Even though you are backstage, you still have to follow their appearance guidelines (hair, tattoos, etc.), though they have relaxed these a bit recently.
How to Apply
Disney’s hiring process is very structured.
- Click the Link: Go to the Disney Careers Job Listing.
- Login/Create Account: You’ll need a Disney Careers account.
- The Assessment: After you apply, watch your email. They often send a “Web-Based Assessment.” Take this seriously. It asks about your personality and work ethic. If you fail this, you don’t get an interview.
Pro-Tip: If you get an interview, be enthusiastic. Even for a warehouse job, Disney hires for attitude. They want people who are happy to be there.
Good luck!
