Job description

** We are a Day Camp. We DO NOT provide housing/accommodations. This is a seasonal position for the Summer only (at this time). There will be minimal pre-camp work requests- dates/times to be agreed upon. Must be available to work 2 weekends for staff trainings and camp set-up.

This is a rare opportunity to join our small, passionate Leadership Team. We are looking for a compassionate, creative, hard-working, and highly-experienced leader with a CAN-DO attitude, looking for a meaningful job with the opportunity to impact the lives of our campers and our staff (& have a ton of fun in the process)

Assistant Camp Coordinators (summer)

We also have more specialized Coordinator roles...

Staff Coordinator (summer)

The Staff Coordinator will have experience supervising a team and will help to create a staff culture that is welcoming, warm, fun, and safe for staff to take risks, grow, stretch themselves, learn, and build meaningful relationships with campers and peers. They oversee a large group of Guides- providing observations, feedback, coaching, and support to ensure our camp staff are excelling with campers, families, and in our elective classes. They must have experience with on-the-fly problem solving and attention to detail.

The Staff Coordinator should also have experience in teaching, group management, or curriculum development to best support our guides in planning and leading activities. With consultation from the Site Director, the Staff Coordinator should be comfortable modeling group management, activity leading, and pivoting when activities cannot be continued as planned.

HQ Coordinator (summer)

Part Registrar- Part Event Planner. The HQ Coordinator is like the Manager of the Camp Office and Event Operations.

They create a warm, welcoming atmosphere in the Camp Office, communicate with respect and clarity, answer phones, respond to emails, help with registration & charge fees, make copies, organize the snack & lunch orders, and keep the camp office tidy & organized. HQC writes incident reports, handles latecomers & early pick-ups, and can step in to help with camper incidents and injuries as necessary.

The HQ coordinator must have both communications and organizational skills, be adept at systems, checklists, and coordinating with team members to cover every little detail. They must also provide excellent customer service via phone.

The HQ Coordinator will work closely with the Leadership team to plan special days and camp events, but will ultimately be responsible for the supplies, organization and execution. ​
