About the Role:
Athena Coding is seeking a highly energetic, responsible, and organized Camp Supervisor to help lead our licensed summer camp at NARA Park. As a Supervisor, you are the backbone of our daily operations. You won't just be leading a group of campers; you will be overseeing a team of counselors, ensuring daily activities run smoothly, managing behavioral escalations, and serving as a primary point of contact for parents. This is a fantastic opportunity for future educators, recreation management majors, or seasoned camp professionals looking to build their leadership resumes!

What You’ll Do:

• Team Leadership: Oversee a team of camp counselors, ensuring they are engaged, actively supervising campers, and running activities (arts, STEM, sports) enthusiastically.

• Operational Support: Help the Camp Director manage daily logistics, including morning check-in, attendance tracking, transitions, and safe dismissal.

• Behavior Management: Step in to support counselors with camper behavioral issues, utilizing de-escalation techniques and positive reinforcement.

• Parent Communication: Interact professionally with parents and guardians during drop-off and pickup, answering questions and providing updates on their child's day.

• Safety & Compliance: Conduct frequent headcounts, ensure staff are maintaining state-mandated 1:10/ 1:5 ratios, and monitor safe transitions to and from the waterfront.

• Fill the Gaps: Act as a "floater" who can seamlessly step into a counselor role to cover staff breaks, or act as a backup first-aid responder if our Health Officer is busy.

What We’re Looking For:

• Age & Experience: Must be at least 18 years old with prior experience working with children (camp counselor, teacher, paraprofessional, coach, or childcare provider). Previous leadership or supervisory experience is highly preferred.

• Problem Solver: Ability to think on your feet, adapt to schedule changes (like rainy days!), and keep staff motivated.

• Strong Communicator: Comfortable giving constructive feedback to teenage/young adult staff and speaking professionally with parents.

• Certifications: Current CPR and First Aid certification is required (we can help arrange training before camp starts if yours is expired).

• Compliance: Must pass all required background checks (CORI/SORI) and provide a 5-year work history.

Why Work With Us?

• Leadership Experience: Incredible resume builder for anyone going into education, management, or pediatric fields.

• Great Environment: Spend your summer outdoors at a beautiful lakefront facility with a highly supportive management team.

• No Weekends: Enjoy a stable Monday-Friday schedule!
