Job description
Work at a Summer Camp in the USA
Spend the summer getting paid to do what you love working as a Camp Counsellor in America with BUNAC. Earn a camp salary, with meals and accommodation included – and 30 days either side of your camp job to travel around the States.
Why Summer Camp USA
Between June and August each year, Camp Directors hire 18-30 year olds from all over the world to work for 9-12 weeks at camp. We work with 800+ summer camps, located from Cali to Connecticut – it’s the ultimate way to fund your summer overseas. You’ll get to live in phenomenal locations, with the best people you’ve ever met, while also making a difference to the lives of children and young people.
How it works
From coaching soccer to teaching crafts, camp is the chance to turn your passion into a paid summer job. You’ll have a job secured before you go working as a General Counsellor, Activity Specialist or Additional Needs Counsellor – or a hybrid role where you do a bit of everything.
As an older sibling, role model and human alarm clock – you'll positively impact the lives of your campers. While also growing personally and professionally yourself with a bunkload of leadership and teamwork skills that future employers will love.
The money bit
Not only is working at camp great for your CV and your social life, but booking with BUNAC you’ll earn USD $2,300 camp salary. Accommodation and food are also included, so most people actually save money while they’re away, using their salary for their road trip after camp.
