Lead the next generation of outdoorsy kids from the most beautiful ‘office' around.
Our Outdoor Educators are the adventurous go-getters helping children learn and grow in a safe, fun and natural environment. (Literally.) At the Y, we're after passionate go-getters with a love of all things outdoors to send our young campers home with lasting memories, a strengthened sense of self and community - and a greater connection to the natural world.
Reporting to the Programs Coordinator, you'll lead adventurous activities and outdoor learning sessions, delivering memorable and meaningful experiences that young people love. You'll also act as leader, mentor and role model for our young community, including many underprivileged and disadvantaged children.
If you're an energetic and empathetic leader looking for a fulfilling career in a beautiful and unique working environment, you could be our next Outdoor Educator. If so, you're in the right place to build confidence, team-building, leadership and independence in others - and yourself.

As such, we embed Safeguarding into everything that we do to make sure Children and Young People are kept at the front of our minds in all our programs and services. We also ensure that all our candidates are appropriately screened to make sure that the right people are in the right roles to keep our children and young people safe.
