  • Be the main point of contact for the parents and guardians of the Juniors. This includes feeding back any observations or issues to parents.
  • Manage some administrative duties for the Juniors (e.g., sign-in/out, registration etc).
  • Liaise with the Camp Manager and work as a team to continuously promote the welfare of the children in your care.
  • Supervise and engage with the children outside of activity times.
  • Ensure the provision of childcare is always of a high quality to meet the needs of individual children from differing backgrounds and stages of development.
  • Live up to the Ultimate Activity Camp promise of ‘Inspiring Children Every Day’ and behave in a manner that reflects the expectations of the company throughout your employment.
  • Show high levels of energy, enthusiasm and professionalism, acting as a suitable role model for the children.
  • Ensure all policies and procedures on camp are adhered to by yourself and the children in your care, including all health and safety, and safeguarding procedures.
