About the role

Green Chimneys in Brewster, NY is seeking temporary-seasonal camp staff to lead activities for children aged 4-14. You will run sessions in arts and crafts, music, sports, or your specialty, guiding groups of 14–16 campers and ensuring a safe, engaging experience during the activity period. Candidates should be able to plan 9 weeks of activities, complete one week of training, be at least 18, and bring energy, outdoor skills, and a willingness to learn from diverse cultures.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
