Canada Smaller Earth Full time

If you've got all-around skills, and want to work with a group of kids at camp, you'll be a good fit as a camp counsellor. These roles require no qualifications - your main responsibility will be leading a small group of campers throughout all their summer activities. Your Impact You’ll become a mentor and role model to your little group of campers - and play a big part in inspiring the next generation. If you’re looking for a hands‑on, personalized experience, this is the role for you. Your campers will look up to and rely on you - making you a key member of your camp's success. Why you should work as a Camp Counsellor? Being a camp counsellor is a great way to develop leadership skills. You’ll be relied upon to take charge, but you’ll also be able to rely on the other counsellors at camp - and help make this summer one to remember. Make sure to list any skills or hobbies on your application. You’ll mainly lead your group of campers, but you’ll also be able to help lead in various activities as you go throughout your day. FAQs Will I be trained for my job? Of course You’ll have a full week to get settled in at camp before the campers arrive. During this week, you’ll receive any training required for your camp counsellor job role, so you’ll be ready for anything. We’ll also make sure you’re prepared before you arrive in Canada. Make sure to attend a pre‑departure Prep Day to get fully prepared for your Canadian adventure. What are the hours like? Will I get time off? Working as a camp counsellor is an incredibly fun and rewarding job - but everyone has their limits. You’ll be in charge of leading your campers through the day - from mealtimes, to activities, to down‑time. It’s a full‑time job, but you’ll have lots of help from your fellow counsellors - and you’ll have days off from work. Each camp is different, so you’ll need to find out specifics from your Camp Director during your interview. Make sure to take care of yourself at camp - physically and mentally. Drink lots of water, take time for yourself, eat properly, and most importantly, get lots of sleep. Should I apply to be a camp counsellor or an activity specialist? If you’re not sure what role to apply for, we’ve got the ultimate summer camp application hack. Apply for both. Yes, both. Here’s why: by adding skills to your profile, you’ll qualify for the highest number of jobs possible. Our Camp Directors are always looking for counsellors with skills and interests. If you can help lead an activity session, such as climbing, you’ll be a valuable asset to your camp. We recommend filling in your profile with as many skills as possible. You don’t necessarily need qualifications, but it can only benefit you to add your skills. If you’re worried your skill level isn’t good enough, it may also be worth joining a local club or activity centre. That way, you can practice your skills at before camp starts. #J-18808-Ljbffr
