Job opportunity for young people


Bookmark and Share


Longridge Activities centre have notified us of the following opportunity for young people. If your love is outdoor activity this could be the job for year.  It's possibly also a great Gap year job.

Every year we recruit six 17+ young people to train to be outdoor activity instructors.  These trainee positions start with us in October and train with us until March.

At the end of the training programme if you train hard you could achieve vocational BCU and RYA qualifications, as well as be trained Bell Boat, Dragon Boat and climbing instructors.

When not training, our trainees assist in all other aspects of the site, helping our caretaker with site maintenance, serving in our cafe, office duties and coordinating birthday parties.

Applicants don't need any qualifications but do need to be able to work with young people and be confident around water.

The positions are residential and we provide full board. If you are considering a career in the outdoor industry or are between education/jobs and are interested in working in an activity centre, contact our Activities Director, Mark Campbell and tell him why we should train you.  mark.campbell@longridge-uk.org
