Job Details
Camp America: Outdoor Adventure Instructor on a summer camp in the USA!
Love the great outdoors and have a strong sense of adventure? Want to spend your summer up in the air on camps high ropes, flying through camp on the zipline or working on the climbing tower? Look no further…
As an Outdoor adventure specialist, it’s your job to encourage campers to conquer their fears and fly through the skies…literally!
It'll be your role to set-up and instruct these activities at camp. You could be specialising in one particular area, like Rock Climbing, or getting involved in multiple Adventure activities. Different groups of kids will come to you for a period at a time throughout the day to try out whatever activities are on offer. You'll be expected to encourage the kids to get involved and spur them on, whilst ensuring of their safety at all times!
It's likely that you'll also have a role as a 'General Counsellor' in which you'll take care of a specific bunk of kids whenever you're not instructing in Adventure activities and get involved with everything else that camp has to offer!
Rock Climbing, Climbing Wall/Tower and High/Low Ropes are classed as 'Advanced Skills' as they're in high demand at the camps we work with. So, if you're well qualified or trained in any of these areas, you'll be classed as an Advanced Skills Counsellor. This will make you eligible to receive a higher pocket money rate and give you a better chance of getting placed! However, Camps take people with all kinds of experience, so if you’re up for the challenge then we highly recommend you apply!
So if you have any experience in these skills, make sure you put them on your application! If you have any qualifications/certifications in these activities you can add these in as well, which will help us determine if you're an Advanced Skills Counsellor.

Our programme includes return flights to the USA, Group International Accident & Sickness coverage, nine weeks food and accommodation, pocket money ($800 – $1,350), support from beginning to end plus much more.
Company
Camp America is a cultural exchange programme that gives you the chance to spend your summer living and working on a summer camp in the USA. We'll support you from start to finish to make sure you have the experience of a lifetime!
It's your chance to do something totally different with your summer and spend it in the USA with people from all over the world in a truly unique setting. There's nowhere quite like camp!
We've been sending people to work on summer camps in America since 1969, so we're a company you can trust. Our staff have done the programme themselves, so we really understand what's involved in getting someone from their home country to a suitable summer camp placement in the USA. We also know how daunting it can be to sort out an experience like this, so over the years we've worked really hard to make the process as easy as possible for you. This means that you can sit back and relax in the knowledge that as far as working on a summer camp is concerned - we've got you covered!
