About the Role

We're looking for an energetic, reliable team player to join our BGCGH Clubs as an After School Program Leader.

  • Keep our Club clean, safe, and organized, following our health and safety protocols.
  • Communicate professionally with parents, caregivers, and colleagues.
  • Uphold our core values of Belonging, Respect, Encouragement & Support, Working Together, and Speaking Out.

What You'll Bring

  • A high school diploma (some post-secondary education or relevant experience is a plus).
  • At least one year of experience working with children or youth (paid or volunteer).
  • Confidence managing group dynamics and responding to behaviour support needs.
  • A strong sense of accountability and the ability to work well on a team.
  • Comfort leading activities independently with a focus on child development.
  • First Aid & CPR (we'll cover the cost if you're not already certified).
  • A clear Criminal Record Check and Child Abuse Registry Check (required before start).
