WANT TO WORK FOR US?

2012 staff application

ARE YOU THE RIGHT PERSON FOR THE JOB?

If you’d like to work for us please look around our site and read about our day and residential camps.

Try to work out what you’d like to do and which camp would suit you best. It’ll help your application if you get the feel for a job you’d like to do before you start filling out the form.

We are looking for fun, energetic, experienced people to work at our day and residential camps and swimming club.

You need to make sure that you:
1. Really do want to work with children
2. Love working hard and in tightly-knit teams
3. Haven't got any convictions related to children

The following video is a glimpse of our 2011 XUK residential staff & their life this summer. This video was produced and directed by Giles Gough at Dask Films.

This video is our 2010 version and the first staff video Dask films had made for us...

Bear in mind that we're particularly keen on teachers, student teachers, TEFL/CELTA teachers, lifeguards, swim teachers, qualified first aiders and other relevant qualifications.

Please send in your application (to appear here) in as soon as possible! We offer jobs to applicants we think appropriate on a first come first served basis, so it's worth applying to come to the earliest day you can.

THE INTERVIEW

We hold four group interviews in London before the summer.

Interview 1: Sat 18th February 2012 (13:30)
Interview 2: Sat 10th March 2012 (13:30)
Interview 3: Sat 12th May 2012 (13:30)
Interview 4: Sat 9th June 2012 (13:30)

Interviews are fairly relaxed. They are all done in a group situation and are a lot of fun. You can dress casually. Just expect and prepare as you would do for a first day at camp. We will have 'get to know you games', put you in 'camp scenarios' and expect you to ask lots of questions! If you're applying for a specialist role such as management or Language teacher we will expect you to take part but will also spend time with you to discuss the role in more detail.


MONEY

Finally, please be aware that you'll earn more the longer you work with us. For example, if you work at Easter, you may even get a pay rise before the summer holidays start!

Weekly wages range from £160 to £300 at our day camps and £175 to £275 at the residential camp (where we also provide three meals a day, option of travel to and from camp and accommodation for four weeks). Please note that specialist staff such as Managers and Language teachers can expect to be paid at, or above, the top end of the above range.

This must be printed out and posted back to us on the address on the form. Good luck and hope to see you at our next interview...

In the meantime, for a bit of fun, please enjoy our XUK residential staff dance from week 1 of our 2010 camp. For those amongst us who are more camera shy there are always jobs behind the scenes!
