Info

Keep everyone organised by working as in the office for KAMP USA, an ideal opportunity for students who want to experience summer camp life but don't want to work directly with children.

The camp office is the hub of camp, the centre for all camp business. Your job could involve working in any of the busy office areas at camp - answering telephones, bookkeeping, photocopying, computer/word processing, helping children with problems and certainly general reception and associated duties.

KAMP USA places you in an ancillary job on a US Summer Camp for 8-9 weeks, with up to an extra 6 weeks to travel once camp is over. You may be placed with friends on KAMP USA, and with low upfront costs, KAMP is one of the easiest and most affordable ways for students to explore North America.

BUNAC provides you with a package that includes a free return flight, working visa and comprehensive work and travel insurance.
