Description

Are you passionate about creating inclusive, engaging, and memorable experiences for the community? We’re looking for an enthusiastic and organized leader to supervise specialized recreation programs that make a real difference!

In this temporary opportunity, you’ll play a key role in shaping programs that serve diverse populations. You’ll lead and inspire a team of staff and volunteers, assist with creative program planning, and help ensure every event runs smoothly and successfully.

If you’re a natural leader with a heart for community impact and a knack for coordination, we’d love to have you on board!

Under the guidance of our Recreation Coordinator, you’ll:

  • Support and inspire participants of all ages and abilities through engaging activities like sports, arts & crafts, cooking, games, music, dance, fitness, and community outings.
  • Lead and assist with exciting field trips, social events, and even overnight adventures like camping trips and sports tournaments.
  • Be flexible and adaptable, working both indoors and outdoors, in all weather conditions—and during days, evenings, weekends, and occasional holidays.
  • Work 3–12 hours per week, depending on the season and program needs—perfect for students, part-timers, or anyone looking to make a meaningful impact.
  • Communicate with care, using patience and professionalism with participants, families, coworkers, and the public.

This is more than just a job—it’s a chance to build connections, grow your leadership skills, and help create joyful, inclusive experiences for everyone involved.

  • Must be at least 18 years old.
  • Must pass a background check.
  • First aid and CPR certification required (provided by the city).
