    Staff Support & Leadership
    • Provide real-time support to counselors navigating camper conflict, homesickness, and behavioral concern
    • Support counselors in addressing co-counselor challenges and offering constructive feedback
    • Assist with trainings and provide ongoing coaching and feedback to staff
    • Help cultivate a positive, inclusive, and team-oriented culture
    • Support staff wellness by providing coverage and breaks when needed
    Camp Preparation & Camper Care
    • Prepare for each incoming camper group by reviewing camper information in advance and flagging key details for counselors, including:
      • Dietary restrictions and allergies
      • Medical needs and emergency medications
      • Mental health considerations
      • Behavioral concerns or support strategies
    • Collaborate with the Discovery Camp Manager to prepare counselors for each new session, including participating in pre-session parent phone calls when needed
    • Facilitate mid-week meetings with the Discovery Camp Manager and overnight staff to review camper concerns and support plans
    Family & Customer Experience Support
    • Support parent and guardian communication in collaboration with the Discovery Camp Manager and Customer Experience team
    • Help ensure families feel informed, supported, and confident in their campers' care throughout the session
    Skills
    • Have an interest in, respect for, and ability to work with children and people with diverse backgrounds.
    • Ability to create an inclusive learning environment for campers from a wide range of backgrounds.
    • Ability to remain calm, flexible, and resourceful in fast-paced or high-pressure situations.
    • Works effectively across departments and with leadership to achieve organizational goals.
    • Understanding of best practices in camp programming, risk management, and experiential education.
    • Preferred - Outdoor recreation experience in hiking, camping, backpacking or rock climbing.
    • Preferred - Knowledge of science based curriculum (e.g. forest ecology, geology, biology).
    Education, Experience and Certifications
    • Prior experience working in overnight or day camp settings, preferably at Keystone Science School or a similar program in a leadership position.
    • Current Wilderness First Aid (WFA) and CPR certifications, from an approved vendor, or the ability to obtain before the first day of employment (KSS does offer an on-site WFA course before staff training in May at the expense of the individual).
    • Age 20+ with an excellent driving record and a valid driver's license.
    Physical Requirements
    • Dexterity, auditory and visual acuity to operate computers and phones or mobile devices.
    • Auditory and visual acuity to interact with guests, sponsors, donors and clients on a daily basis.
    • Able to work for long periods of time without break.
    • Able to lift 75 lbs. with minimal assistance.
    • Able to successfully manage multiple, high priority tasks in a fast-paced environment.
