Job Description

Camp counselors at Inquiring Chef Academy serve two important roles: 1) culinary management, insuring that our kitchen runs smoothly and 2) supervision of campers, ages 5-12.

Both roles require patience, maturity, flexibility, and a willingness to closely follow instructions. Our campers will look to you as an example as they are working through new challenges.

Counselors must plan to actively work with small groups of campers, assist with the preparation of food for meals, and all of the clean-up that is required after camp activities. Counselors will help with set-up, washing dishes, putting supplies away, and keeping the spaces we use for camp clean, organized, and tidy.

To qualify as a counselor, you must:

  • Be in 9th grade or above and be at least 14 years old by November 1, 2024
  • Be available for all hours required for camp (Monday, November 25 – Wednesday, November 27)
  • Have a bank account for compensation
  • Be willing to complete a training session before camp begins (training will take place on Saturday, November 23)

You might be a great counselor if you:

  • Enjoy spending time with children
  • Enjoy cooking
  • Are patient, friendly, responsible, and flexible
  • Are willing to closely follow instructions and adjust to help with any needs that come up during camp
  • Are willing to help keep our space clean, including wiping down tables, washing dishes, and other responsibilities as assigned

Counselors earn 14$ / hour. Meals are provided.
