Thanks for your interest in joining our JKSC team as a Manager!
The Camp Manager is crucial in facilitating the JKSC experience by welcoming Campers, overseeing and encouraging Coaches, giving group talks, running group games, and--most importantly--assuring the safety and well-being of everyone who attends a camp.
Managers should have ample experience in working with (and managing) people. Many of our Managers have a background in Coaching, Athletic Training, high-level athletics, Nursing, or Education. We look for Managers who are incredibly resourceful and forward thinking, as well as being well-spoken, professional, punctual, and who possess warm and engaging personalities--as they are truly the "face" of our brand.
Managers should set the standard of camp expectations by operating at a high level throughout the day. They should be comfortable leading group talks, as well as comfortable talking with parents during drop-off and pick-up. We love Managers who are high energy, approachable, and fun!
As of 2023, Managers will be 1099 Independent Contractors. Our Manager rate will start at $1,000 per camp week (roughly 32 hours), though we reserve the right to provide bonuses or additional pay at our discretion. We will be contracting 3-4 Managers in the Portland-METRO area, one Manager in Camas/Vancouver, WA; Bend, OR; Eugene, OR; and Salem, OR; Danville/Concord, CA; Rocklin, CA; Arizona; Henderson, NV; and 2 Managers in Boise, ID
