Passionate about working with and having an impact on kids? Interested in education and project-based learning? Ready to take your leadership skills to the next level in an amazingly fun summer job?

Summer Camp Counselors, or Team Leaders as we call them at Galileo, are the single most consistent presence in the experience of each Camp Galileo camper, and have the greatest potential impact on each camper’s summer. They stay with the same set of campers throughout the week and create physical and emotional safety of each and every camper within a team.

We value having divergent thinkers who bring various experiences and viewpoints to the table at Galileo. We strongly encourage members of underrepresented groups to apply.

ABOUT GALILEO

Galileo Learning brings best-in-class educational programs to tens of thousands of kids each year through almost 100 in-person summer day camps across the country. We believe that the world needs innovators and that innovation can be taught. We think kids who learn to explore and who are willing to tackle challenges despite their fears are happier, more creative, 1414and more confident. And we think kids with these skills are more likely to change our world and be the masters of their own.

We also know that we can’t achieve our mission without staff who are role models of innovation — visionary, courageous, collaborative, determined and reflective. It’s not always easy, and our camp staff work hard. But part of what makes our camps great is our staff’s commitment to sharing in and bringing camp magic to life—for campers, and for themselves, whether that looks like donning a chicken hat for a skit, or playing a board game with two campers to build connection. Galileans take ownership of their own performance to make this place better every day. They grow a ton, and have fun while doing it.
