Full Job Description

Year-Round Lead Camp Counselor

The Organized Mind | Apex, NC
Approximately 35 hours per week | Monday–Friday
Pay: $16–$18 per hour, based on experience
Start Date: September 1, 2026

About the Position

The Organized Mind is looking for an energetic, outgoing Lead Camp Counselor who genuinely enjoys connecting with tweens and teens.

This is an active, hands-on role working with campers ages 9–14. You’ll lead activities, supervise campers, attend field trips, drive a camp van, and help create an environment where kids feel welcomed, included, and excited to participate.

Previous experience working with children is required. This is a permanent, year-round position, so applicants must have reliable Monday–Friday availability that will remain consistent rather than changing with school semesters.

Who We’re Looking For

The most important part of this position is actively creating a great experience for our campers. We need someone energetic, outgoing, playful, and genuinely interested in getting to know the kids.

Our Lead Camp Counselor does more than watch the group. This person:

Joins the games, makes the crafts, participates in challenges, and is willing to be silly with the campers.
Starts conversations and activities without always waiting to be directed.
Brings enthusiasm to free time and slower parts of the day.
Notices when campers are bored, left out, or losing interest and takes the initiative to reengage them.
Tries new ideas, pays attention to what campers enjoy, and continually looks for ways to improve their experience.
Researches fresh, age-appropriate activities and brings creativity to quarterly planning.

You do not need to be the loudest person in the room, but you must be comfortable initiating, participating, and building genuine connections with campers. Someone who prefers to supervise from the sidelines would not be comfortable in this role.

Responsibilities

Lead games, creative projects, STEM activities, food projects, and outdoor recreation.
Supervise campers during activities, meals, transitions, free time, and field trips.
Explain activities clearly and adjust them when needed.
Reinforce camp expectations and respond to behavior concerns calmly and consistently.
Set up materials and guide campers through cleanup.
Drive a 12-passenger camp van to field trips and other scheduled destinations.
Follow attendance, transportation, medical, allergy, and field-trip safety procedures.
Perform basic first aid when needed.
Take and upload approved camper photos as assigned.
Provide parents with routine updates at pickup and refer significant concerns to management.
Help maintain clean, organized, and safe activity and supply areas.

Activity Planning and Supplies

This position includes required quarterly activity planning. Scheduled planning time will be provided separately from direct camper supervision.

During planning time, you will:

Research and develop a varied mix of activities for tweens and teens.
Write clear instructions and material lists.
Choose activities that fit the available time, space, staffing, and budget.
Improve or replace activities that did not engage campers.
Organize completed plans in the camp’s shared planning system.

During regular camp weeks, you will track activity supplies and submit requests with enough notice for materials to be ordered.

Required Qualifications

At least 18 years old
Previous paid or volunteer experience working directly with children or teens
Comfortable leading groups and participating enthusiastically in activities
Consistent Monday–Friday availability throughout the year
Valid North Carolina driver’s license and safe driving record
Comfortable driving a 12-passenger van after training
Able to pass a background check, drug screening, driving-record check, and reference check
CPR and First Aid certified or willing to become certified before starting
Dependable transportation to and from work
Reliable, punctual, creative, and able to communicate clearly

Experience in a camp, classroom, after-school program, childcare setting, recreation program, coaching role, or similar youth environment is strongly preferred.

Physical Requirements

This is an active position involving standing, walking, bending, carrying supplies, participating in recreational activities, and working indoors and outdoors. Reasonable accommodations may be available for qualified applicants.

The Organized Mind is a year-round educational camp in Apex, North Carolina, serving students ages 9–14.
