St Albans, Hertfordshire, United Kingdom Barracudas Activity Day Camps Full time

Activity Leader - Easter - St Albans, Hertfordshire

Hours of work: 08:30 – 17:30 

Salary: £412.00 – £559.17 salary per week dependant on age, internal/external experience, and qualifications. (February Half Term Contracts to be issued on 2023 wage level. 2024 wage level effective from 1st April.)

Reportable to: Camp Senior Team, Area Manager and Central Office 

Barracudas is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff to share this commitment.

Activity Leader contracts are based on a minimum of 4 - days per week. You will have an allocated day off each week, which is confirmed to you through your Recruiter/Camp Manager each week. Whilst the contract is based on a minimum of 4 - days, there could still be a requirement to work the full 5 - days depending on the booking numbers and staffing requirements. Again, this is confirmed by your recruiter/Camp Manager ahead of time.

You will receive these notifications towards the end of each week. The allocated day off will likely differ each week. If you need a particular day off, this needs to be authorised ahead of camp, as we can't guarantee this will fall on your allocated day off. 

*Easter and May half term contracts will be based on 3 - day weeks, where the operating week we are open is a normal 4 days due to bank holiday. You will be assigned a day off as detailed above.

  • Complete Online Training annually
  • Attend Induction Training Day ahead of your first working season (this will most likely take place within the 7-day period before your camp opens) 
  • Assist with pack up at the end of camp

ADDITIONAL RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Ensure that the company fulfils all its Health and Safety obligations by carefully following instructions and showing a proactive and diligent approach to all safety issues
  • Any activities that you organise and deliver must be appropriate for the children in your care within the scope of your qualifications, skills, and knowledge
  • Encourage the children to take part in new activities and ensure the activity programme is as directed on the timetable
  • Ensure the children under your supervision behave in a safe manner. Always know the children's whereabouts, respect them as individuals and communicate with them daily about codes of behaviour

Barracudas are committed to equal opportunities in employment and this post does require an Enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service Check. 

The amendments to the Rehabilitation of Offenders Act 1974 (Exceptions) Order 1975 (2013 and 2020) provides that when applying for certain jobs and activities, certain convictions and cautions are considered 'protected'. This means that they do not need to be disclosed to employers, and if they are disclosed, employers cannot take them into account. Guidance about whether a conviction or caution should be disclosed can be found on the Ministry of Justice website.
