Description

Pied Piper is a fun place to work but also one where each team member has significant responsibility. A Group Leader is responsible for the smooth and safe running of their nominated group. Particular attention should be paid to implementing the safety policy, ensuring all procedures are followed.
All Group Leaders are responsible to the Team Captain on camp and should be comfortable working as a team.

Teamwork is especially important at the beginning and end of the day to make sure the camp is ready for the influx of many super-excited children and to also make sure you can go home on time to catch up on some much-needed R&R.

As a Group Leader you should have the following qualities which are summarised below:

You must have the ability to think on your feet and use your imagination to come up with the wackiest and weirdest activities whilst ensuring that all children are kept safe according to the Company's safety policy.
You must have the ability to rapidly count heads of the 5-14 small people in your group (even when they are moving around).
You must be prepared to think outside the box and organise activities that will make all the other groups envious of your creative prowess.
You should be adept at pretending to be a shark/zombie/monster during games and an ability to realistically eat pretend food is advantageous.
The ability to sing in tune is not necessary, however, the ability to sing out of tune in front of children and parents is of utmost importance.
You should be comfortable getting your hair wet if you go swimming or on the waterslide as children know no bounds when it comes to water sprays and hoses.
The ability to stay on your feet on a bouncy castle is advantageous, although not as amusing for the children as if you can't.
You should be prompt and be good at time keeping to ensure your children don't miss any of their activity time (especially if they take 20 minutes to get changed for swimming).
You should feel comfortable talking to big people (as well as little ones) at the beginning and end of the day to share the wonderful memories their children have created.
You must have a warm smiling face for children, parents and colleagues which will make everyone feel special.
Finally,you must be prepared to feel loved, special and important to many young children and their families.
