It's vital for us to have great teams at our events as the atmosphere and ethos is what makes it memorable for both campers and staff themselves. Read below what some of our most recent tutors think of their experience ...
There are currently no permanent vacancies.
We are always on the lookout for talented staff who are enthusiastic communicators of their fields. We typically employ engineering and computer science students (and occasionally teachers and independent freelancers) to run our courses for a number of weeks in the Easter and summer holidays. We primarily look for people who have great interpersonal skills and who are highly skilled in one or more fields of technology that we teach. As many of our courses involve programming, we generally include a practical 'programming challenge' in any interviews, so we generally only encourage those who are expert programmers to apply! There are, however, exceptions as some courses (like 3D Printing and Drone Racing) have less programming, and we then look for staff who are highly skilled in these topics. We are not a typical activity camp so opportunities for more general 'camp counsellors' are limited.
This summer's camps stretch from mid-July to the end of August and are run across three venues in London, Abingdon and Winchester. Staff at our London and Abingdon venues tend to live within commuting distance, whereas staff at our Winchester (residential) venue tend to come from further afield as accommodation is provided.
We also have openings for managers at camp and often have teachers take this role, although experience in teaching is not necessarily required (but experience with children certainly is!) We are currently encouraging applications for a camp manager willing to work at our Winchester venue (residential so accommodation is supplied) in August.
