Assistant Manager - Cardiff

Job Type: Full Time - Seasonal

As part of the Kings Camps Management Team, a Kings Camps Assistant Manager shares responsibility for the delivery of a unique Kings Camps experience, ensuring children aged 5 to 17 are active, having fun and learning together.

About the Role

Working alongside a Site Manager, an Assistant Manager has specific responsibility for programme delivery – including activity sessions, whole camp warm-ups and weekly events. Assistant Managers help Site Managers to respond to parent, staff and venue personnel matters.

Assistant Managers aren’t assigned a specific group of children, but they are required to step in to lead activities, supervise lunchtimes and model best practice to less experienced Red Tops.

During a season, Assistant Managers are onsite from 8am to 6pm, acting as a responsible first aider and being available to speak with parents, staff or central office personnel. You’ll work alongside the Site Manager to ensure operating procedures and policies are followed, including behaviour management, recording incidents and co-managing OFSTED requirements.

Child safety is our number one priority, and the welfare of children is paramount. Supervision responsibilities include lunch, morning and afternoon breaks, implementing our behaviour management policy, overseeing the use of equipment and upholding health and safety standards and procedures.

Person Specification (Ideal, but with some flexibility)

  • Availability between 8am-6pm, Monday to Friday, during the school holidays, for the duration of shorter seasons, and a minimum of 3 consecutive weeks during summer season
  • At least 6 months’ experience of working with children aged 5 – 17 years
  • At least 3 months’ experience in a management or leadership position
  • Hold or working towards a childcare, sport or teaching related degree (or relevant qualification)
  • Hold or willing to attend training for a valid Paediatric First Aid Qualification
