About the Role
Hangingstone Climbing Company is looking for two enthusiastic staff to run our PD Day Camps for kids ages 6–12. These camps take place on no-school days (typically Fridays) and provide a fun, active, and safe environment for children while their parents are at work.

Both roles are active, hands-on, and perfect for those who love working with kids.
Please note: In the event of a school strike, Hangingstone may run extended camp programs during weekdays. Applicants should be open to the possibility of additional hours in this case.
