Job description

We are looking to appoint a Holiday Camp Coach on a fixed-term basis, starting from 7 July 2025.

Alleyn’s Holiday Camp is a vibrant and successful multi-activity programme for children aged 5 to 11, operated by Alleyn’s School Enterprises Limited (ASEL). ASEL manages the commercial use of the School’s facilities outside of core hours, including evenings, weekends, and school holidays.

As a Holiday Camp Coach, you will play a key role in providing a safe, supportive, and fun environment where children can take part in a wide range of sports, creative arts, games, and daily swimming sessions. You will lead and assist with activities designed to help children develop new skills, build confidence, and make new friends. Days are carefully planned to ensure every child finds something they enjoy, and children are actively encouraged to share their ideas about games and activities.

Please visit our website here for the full job description and information about how to apply.

All staff enjoy access to superb facilities and resources, as well as a variety of great benefits which are detailed in our Working at Alleyn’s brochure.

The closing date for applications is midnight on Tuesday 20 May 2025, and interviews will be held at Alleyn’s on the week commencing 26 May 2025.

If you have any questions or would like to discuss an application, you are very welcome to contact the HR Department ([e-mail], 020 8299 8009).

Please note that suitable candidates may be interviewed before the closing date, and we reserve the right to withdraw the position if an early appointment is made.

The School is committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment. The successful applicant will be subject to an enhanced DBS check. Alleyn’s is an Equal Opportunities employer.

Alleyn’s welcomes applications from all applicants who meet the requirements for the position, however we are especially keen to receive applications from those in minority groups for which the School is currently underrepresented. We celebrate diversity and thrive on the benefits it brings.
