We are now pleased to announce we are accepting applications. You will be paid a full Instructor wage from day 1 regardless of prior experience or qualifications. You will also have the opportunity throughout your employment to gain qualifications. As well as gaining qualifications, experience and self confidence you will also have the opportunity to make new friendships and experience what it is like at our other centres around the UK. As an Activity Instructor your job is to provide an introduction to outdoor pursuits to all visitors in a safe environment and to assist in the development of social and interactive skills in conjunction with the National Curriculum Key stages 2 &3. The work is extremely rewarding. Every Instructor remembers the smile on the face of the first child they helped to have the confidence to overcome their fears.

We prefer instructors to live on-site due where fairly priced living accommodation and food packages are available.


What we can offer you:

  •    National Governing Body (NGB) qualifications from British Fencing, Archery GB, NSRA, Nuco, British Canoeing and the RYA.
  •   A comprehensive training and development programme - we don't only develop the abilities of children, we develop the skills and abilities of our Instructors as well
  •   An excellent salary package
  •   A standard seasonal contract.
  •   Extremely rewarding work
  •   Career development prospects - we develop good Instructors into Senior Instructors, Chief Instructors and Heads of Centre
  •   A fairly priced 'live in package' with good accommodation and food
  •   Good working conditions in a professional yet friendly team environment
  •   High standard uniform.
  •   Amazing memories that you'll never forget.
