Each year, we recruit energetic Activity Instructors to inspire, motivate and reassure our young guests.
As a PGL Activity Instructor you will introduce guests to a number of activities and deliver taster sessions including orienteering, archery, fencing, climbing, quadbiking, abseiling, high ropes courses and initiative exercises.
You will also help to organise and participate in our dynamic programme of evening entertainment for our guests, escort them between sessions and take them to mealtimes.
No formal qualifications are required for this position - enthusiasm about working in the outdoors with children is all that we ask for.
