Specialist Staff

The camp staff team, whether small or large, is made up of a team of competent, passionate and driven individuals. Below are examples of individuals we would love to hear from who possess experience or qualifications in areas that prove how responsible and capable you are. You never know, you may even be considered for senior staff!

P.E. Teacher

Preferred Experience or Qualifications;

 

As a qualified Physical Education teacher, you will be well sought after by camps looking for those to fill positions that carry a large amount of responsibility, particularly within the athletics or sports field. 

 

With your teaching experience, you will be an invaluable addition to camp staff, potentially even being considered for a position on senior staff who oversee the running of camp as a whole, including all activity areas.

To be considered for a role of this type, you will have;

You may also have additional coaching experience in another area, such as the waterfront. This will strengthen your application further. 

Christian or Jewish Faith

Preferred Experience or Qualifications;

 

Religion plays a big part of a lot of the camps we work with across the USA. Although some simply look to promote certains values associated with a religion, others will have a higher level of practice. Camps of this type will be on the lookout for staff who are more heavily involved with their faith.

Christian Faith

If hired for a role at a dedicated Christian camp, you will not be required to actively lead sermons but you will need to feel confident enough to lead child focused bibles lessons through arts/crafts, plays and Sunday School.

 
Your willingness to work with different denominations (protestant, catholic, Pentecostal, Baptist) will allow you to be considered for more camps of this type.

Jewish Faith

If you regularly attend synagogue and have experience in teaching Torah studies to children, you will be the perfect candidate for any one of the dedicated Jewish faith camps that we work with.

The USA is a multi-cultural country and with neighbouring countries that speak French and Spanish as first languages, becoming a Languages Teacher is a popular staff requirement for many camps.
