Americamp
AmeriCamp offers you the ultimate summer camp experience with one crucial difference to the other companies.
We offer the highest salaries in the industry in order to ensure that you are paid fairly for your work and have the financial means to travel the US or Canada for 30 days after camp. With zero costs on camp, you know exactly where the money you earn will be going – exploring North America!
(Fun fact: you may be working alongside other counsellors at your camp who are doing the same job, but on a much lower salary through another company. Try not to brag!)
Working with close to 1000 camps, each with something unique to offer, we place you at the camp of your dreams and support you throughout the most rewarding summer you can have!
With our programme, you can grow the skills you already have whilst developing new ones at the camps unique facilities.
Whilst doing this, you will ensure children aged 5-15 will be having the summer of a lifetime and developing hobbies and passions of their own. We don’t know a single AmeriCamper to have left camp without friends for life and we’re sure you’re no exception! Get fully involved in this unique experience and build your international connections whilst you’re escaping into your beautiful camp’s scenery.
AmeriCamp is a fantastic way to boost a graduate CV. If you wish to work in coaching roles in the future, our programme is a wholly unique way to gain this experience. We work with many underprivileged and special needs camps in addition to our traditional camps that always need helping hands! Regardless of your career path, AmeriCamp shows employers you are passionate, outgoing and resilient!
Our programme is open to everyone, so If you have the summer free this year, we highly recommend jumping in!
