Description
Activity Leader (Summer)
Manchester
Full Time/Fixed Term
Ready to turn every day into an adventure? This summer, EF Education First wants YOU to join our Manchester language campus as an Activity Leader. This isn't just a job; it's your chance to make every moment count, learn new skills, and help bring people from around the world together.
EF Education First's mission is opening the world through education.
A career with EF combines the support and opportunity of a large international organisation, with the spirit and energy of a small business. We look for thinkers and doers – creative, collaborative, and motivated people who are excited by education, communication, and travel.
When you join EF, you join a multicultural and diverse community working across more than 600 schools and offices in 50 countries. In the UK and Ireland, our core presence is felt at our international language campuses and summer schools, where we welcome students from around the world to participate in language learning and cultural exchange. Whoever you are, whatever you are passionate about—we welcome you and encourage you to open the world through education.
Your Role
We are looking for natural leaders who will help organise and deliver activities, events and excursions for groups of our student body. Every day is different from taking students on unique excursions, to running epic themed murder mysteries while dressed as your favourite film character There are also opportunities to go on overnight trips and party nights within the UK, as well as the chance to participate in the many fun activities and events you will be leading. This role is a 4-12 week position running throughout June, July and August 2024, on a fixed term contract and with permanent opportunities available afterwards.
