Job description

Activity Leader - October Camp - Twickenham, London

Fixed term seasonal role - October

Hours of work : 08 : 30 – 17 : 30

Salary : £478.68 – £637.76 salary per week dependant on age, internal / external experience, and

qualifications.

(February Half Term Contracts to be issued on 2024 wage level. 2025 wage level effective from 1st April.)

Reportable to : Camp Senior Team, Area Manager and Central Office

Barracudas is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expect all staff to share this commitment.

Activity Leader contracts are based on a minimum of 4 - days per week. You will have an allocated day off each week, which is confirmed to you through your Recruiter / Camp Manager each week. Whilst the contract is based on a minimum of 4 - days, there could still be a requirement to work the full 5 - days depending on the booking numbers and staffing requirements. Again, this is confirmed by your recruiter / Camp Manager ahead of time.

You will receive these notifications towards the end of each week. The allocated day off will likely differ each week. If you need a particular day off, this needs to be authorised ahead of camp, as we can't guarantee this will fall on your allocated day off.

  • Easter and May half term contracts will be based on 3 - day weeks, where the operating week we are open is a normal 4 days due to bank holiday. You will be assigned a day off as detailed above.
